Dear Gentry Families, At the board meeting earlier this evening, the board voted to accept a proposal to amend the current 2024-2025 school calendar, making April 18 and May 23 regular school days to serve as two of our makeup days. The six (6) total makeup days for the 2024-2025 school year are now set for April 18, May 23, and May 27-May 30, 2025, which will help us avoid extending the school year into June. Additionally, the board approved an amendment to the 2025-2026 school calendar, embedding five inclement weather makeup days during the school year. These days will be January 19, February 20, April 17, May 26, and May 27, 2026. Any additional makeup days, if needed, will begin on May 28, 2026. Updated calendars will be added to our website soon. These changes were made to prioritize student instruction and based on feedback from staff. If you have any conflicts with this year’s amendments due to previously arranged plans, don’t worry—just let the building administration know, and we will offer some flexibility to accommodate the changes. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Hello Gentry families, As indicated in the original 2024-2025 calendar and confirmed by the survey results, makeup days will be held May 27-30 and June 2-3, 2025, with the 6th missed day being made up on June 3. Please note, attendance will count on these days, and instruction will be happening. It is important for students to attend and actively participate, as these are instructional days.
