**Consultation period is now over. Thank you to everyone who provided feedback on the 2021-22 school year calendar**
At this time each year, a committee of representatives from the four school boards in our region work together to consult with their respective school communities to establish the upcoming school year calendar.
The following elements are required in every school year calendar:
- 194 mandatory instructional days;
- Maximum of seven (7) Professional Activity Days (PA Days);
- Maximum of ten (10) examination days (for secondary schools).
Student learning, success and well-being are integral considerations for boards in their decision-making. All four local school boards are mindful of the broad-reaching impact the placement of the school year calendar can have on students, parents, staff and volunteers. Consequently, we invite parents, staff and members of the community to provide feedback on the placement of the Board Holiday and Christmas Break for the 2021-22 school year between January 26 and February 2, 2021.
Responses to the consultation will be collected and taken into consideration in developing the final version of the calendar which will be presented to each school board and shared with the Ministry of Education for approval by March 1, 2021.Thank you for taking the time to provide your input on the upcoming 2021-22 School Year Calendar.
