Calendar

This calendar has been developed to help teachers and administrators avoid conflicts when planning lessons, assignments, assessments, and school-wide events.

Staff should consult this calendar when planning to ensure that major spiritual holidays do not conflict with due dates for assignments, test dates, or other significant events.

When conflicts do occur, teachers should be as flexible and accommodating as possible to ensure that all students can celebrate their religious traditions equally. In these circumstances, students are not to be penalized for lateness of homework/assignments or for testing on a different date or the like. A positive, constructive dialogue with the student(s) in question will help to determine what necessary accommodations or adjustments should be made.
