Calendars
The WSISD District Planning Committee (DPC), which consists of staff, parents and community members, annually develops the Academic Calendar. The DPC received input from staff and parents regarding two 2023-24 calendar options, and the DPC proposed a final version to the Board of Trustees on Feb. 22. The school board adopted the final calendar with no changes.
Priorities:
• Student instruction
• Students required to attend school for 75,600 minutes annually
• Teachers required to work 183 days per school year
In the spring of 2023, trustees approved a District of Innovation amendment that enables all team members to continue to have the same amount of contract days and pay, but work 4 less days annually.
• First semester ends prior to Winter Break to ensure that secondary students take final exams prior to holidays
• Staff Development Days strategically placed throughout year to provide staff with appropriate time for professional development and instructional planning
• 2 inclement weather make up days required
