Anne Arundel’s Board of Education is inviting public input as it weighs options for the school calendar for the 2025-2026 academic year. During a recent meeting held on December 18, board members discussed the possibility of starting winter break two days earlier than usual. This potential change aims to accommodate families and staff while considering the educational needs of students.
The board is particularly interested in hearing from parents, students, and community members about their preferences regarding the proposed adjustments. Feedback will play a crucial role in shaping the final decision, ensuring that the calendar aligns with the community's needs and priorities.
As the board prepares to finalize the school calendar, they emphasize the importance of community involvement in this process. Individuals are encouraged to share their thoughts and suggestions to help create a schedule that benefits everyone involved. The deadline for submitting comments is approaching, and the board looks forward to a robust discussion on this important issue.
