Frequently Asked Questions
The December 23 half-day is recorded for East Derry. Do not apply that school-specific entry to every district school without confirmation from the student's school.
June 11 is listed as tentative. The source distinguishes Half Days from Early Release Days, so those labels should not be treated as interchangeable. Check the district's latest calendar before relying on the tentative end-of-year date.
