| III. | Special Item | |
| A. | 2022-23 Proposed Academic Calendar | |
|
This calendar has been vetted by the PCM Staff and collectively agreed upon. It has been cross walked with the with the PSD 2022-23 calendar which has been attached for reference. The calendar has been shared with PCM families but only minor changes if any are expected.
The summary tab shows how this years proposed calendar differs from the original calendar and how it differs from the current schedule. The larger changes have to do with staff start date. The changes reflect a more streamlined calendar that is more comparable to PSD and leverages. The family-teacher conference schedule is more efficiently laid out as not to created more work for the guides and to provide families better preparation time and an opportunity to learn more about Montessori before their conferences. I will be reaching out to the Y to see if the Thursday and Friday 1/2 day of family-teacher conferences can also be covered by them.
Since this calendar differs from our original calendar presented (in instructional days and hours) we have to present the proposed calendar to the Commission for approval. Staff start date is not considered (only instructional days and hours). |
