Calendar
About this report
This submission is used to define the academic school year for each school in the district. Pursuant to Ed 306.19, each school shall maintain a school calendar which will be used to calculate student membership. Each district will also need to identify an in-district school's calendar to be used as a template for all students placed out of district in out-of-state or nonpublic schools (enrollment statuses 25 and 26, respectively). As part of this identification, the district will need to submit an out of district start date and out of district end date that will be used to define the school year for all students placed out of district.
The in-district school's blocking days and calendar sessions will be used in conjunction with the out-of-district start and end dates when calculating ADM for out-of-district students.
