- Contact your school administration: If needed, email or call the administration office to ask when school will not be open for holidays.
Other tips for students and families:
- If an exam falls on a holiday, contact your teacher(s) about rescheduling and/or making up work.
- Sync your calendar: Add all district holidays/closures into your calendar so you don’t get surprised later on.
- Pack back-up time to study: Plan a quiet time to study at home for whenever schools are closed to stud and read the lessons at your own pace.
