Calendar changes restore 4 school days, extend winter trimester, end classes June 18
Eugene School District 4J schools were closed for four days in February due to heavy snow. The district is restoring school days and extending the winter trimester to make up the lost instruction time.
The school calendar has been revised to restore four school days—one in March, and three at the end of the school year in June.
To balance learning time in each trimester, the current trimester is extended by one week, moving the grading day for middle and high schools.
The new final day for students will be Tuesday, June 18, if there are no additional school closures this year. Wednesday, June 19 will be the final grading day for teachers. High school graduation dates remain the same.
The school board unanimously approved the calendar revisions on Wednesday, March 6.
