Since Labor Day is late again with the holiday falling on September 6, 2010, the Committee recommended a calendar for the 2010-11 school year with school beginning for students on September 1, 2010. This calendar configuration provides a schedule that allows school to end on a reasonable date in June 2011 and also incorporates the holidays of Martin Luther King Jr. Day and President's Day.   The Education Committee reviews the school calendar annually and will continue to consider all public comments when making decisions regarding future calendars.

Curriculum Study: Looking Ahead The T/E School District is in the process of examining its curricular program in order to consider program changes to meet the strategic planning goal of preparing students with the skills and knowledge to be leaders and contributors in the 21st century. These considerations are the result of three factors: strategic planning initiatives, new electronic learning environments and state testing requirements for student proficiency.
