  • First day of school: Tuesday, September 8, 2015
  • Christmas Break: Monday, December 21, 2015 to Friday, January 1, 2016
  • Mid-winter Break: Monday, March 14, 2016 to Friday, March 18, 2016
  • Six professional activity (PA) days:
    • Friday, September 4, 2015
    • Friday, September 25, 2015
    • Friday, November 13, 2015
