2016-17 School Calendar
This calendar was developed by the District Calendar Committee, a group of community/business members, parents, teachers, principals, district staff, and representatives from the Classroom Teachers Association (CTA) and OESPA (the Orange Educational Support Professionals Association). There is a three-day Thanksgiving break for students and a two-week winter break.
