Dear Parents and Guardians,
We would like to inform you of an update to the school calendar approved by the board during its regular meeting today.
Due to instructional days missed as a result of recent weather events, the following previously scheduled teacher workdays will now be student instructional days:
• Monday, February 16
• Friday, May 15
Students will attend school on both dates.
In addition, Early College High School will convert this Friday, February 13 to an instructional day for its students.
We understand that changes to the calendar may require adjustments for families, and we appreciate your flexibility and continued partnership as we work to ensure instructional time is met for all students.
Thank you for your ongoing support.



Please note that there will be NO SCHOOL for students (except ECHS students) on January 20–21, 2026 due to Teacher Workdays.
✅ Early College High School (ECHS) students WILL attend school on these days.
Thank you for planning accordingly and for your continued partnership as we support our teachers and students.

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’”

Dear Parents and Guardians of PSRC Students,
We will be following our regular schedule tomorrow.
However, we'd like to remind everyone of a few things:
• Please make sure students are dressed warmly.
• We've asked our bus drivers to be patient as students head to buses and avoid standing outside in the cold.
Our top priority is the safety of all students.
Thank you for your continued support.
