The school calendar approved by the Oconto Falls School Board for 2014-15 includes a revised schedule for parent-teacher conferences and one less day for face-to-face instruction.
The board on Dec. 9 looked at two proposals for the school calendar and chose a fall schedule that expands parent-teacher conferences to allow for additional parent access. Fall parent-teacher conferences are scheduled after school on Oct. 27 and 28 and from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Oct. 30. A vacation day is scheduled Oct. 31.
For the 2013-14 school year, students were released early on Oct. 17, and parent-teacher conferences were held in the afternoon and evening. Oct. 25 was a vacation day.
The 2014-15 calendar includes 179 face-to-face days between teachers and students and one day for parent-teacher conferences. The district has 180 face-to-face days scheduled for the current school year, but state regulations allow for 179 for the upcoming school year.
Classes will begin Sept. 2 and end June 4, 2015. High school graduation will take place on Sunday, May 31, 2015.
The calendar requires the make-up of the first and third snow days, but not the second and fourth.
