🗓️ View Academic Calendar: https://www.gravetteschools.net/academic-calendar
The academic calendar is the authoritative source for the structure of the school year. While it does not include specific event dates or athletics information, it defines mandatory dates like semesters, holidays, and breaks. Having these details early is crucial for staff and families to plan ahead and stay informed on the upcoming schedule.
Looking ahead to the next school year, our schools will have fresh support through building upgrades and new leadership on the school board. These improvements, alongside the contract extension for Superintendent Jeff Gravette, provide a stable foundation as we work to support our students. We are excited for the progress being made across our district and look forward to another great year for our #LionPride.
