As we get ready for another exciting school year, we're thrilled to welcome students and families back to our classrooms! The 2026-27 school year starts in less than a month, and we want to begin sharing resources. The first day of school for grades 1-12 is Wednesday, Sept. 2, and school starts at regular time, not late start. The first day for Kindergarten is Tuesday, Sept. 8.

We're putting together a comprehensive set of dates and information for families as you look forward to the first day. Visit our Back to School Guide to find school calendars, start and dismissal times, enrollment information, and more details about the upcoming year.
