A full calendar for the upcoming school year has been released by the Todd County School System after the board there voted Thursday night to push back the start of the school year by two weeks until August 25.
The last day of school had been set for May 19 prior to the board action and it’s now May 25, according to Director of Districtwide Service Jennifer Pope, who says all holidays, breaks, and curriculum days remained the same.
District officials say the changing of the first day of school came after a “thoughtful review of construction and renovations at all Todd County School facilities.”
Kindergarten students won’t begin their year until September 1.
