On Tuesday, January 13, 2026, the SEBRSD School Committee voted to amend the school calendar to include two additional school days in an effort to mitigate the impact of days we were forced to close following the flood on December 16 at the high school building. On that day, the flood damage at the high school building created conditions that canceled school for five school days leading up to the planned release for the holiday break (December 17, 18, 19, 22, and 23, 2025), and these days must be made up in order to reach the 180-school day mandate.
Please note:
Thursday, January 29, 2026 was originally slated to be a full professional development day for teachers and no school for students; January 29 will now be a HALF DAY OF SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS AT DAVID PROUTY HIGH SCHOOL ONLY with dismissal at 11:06 a.m.;
Friday, April 3, 2026 was originally slated to be a no-school day for students and faculty / staff in observance of Good Friday; April 3 will now be a FULL DAY OF SCHOOL FOR STUDENTS, FACULTY, AND STAFF AT DAVID PROUTY HIGH SCHOOL ONLY;
Transportation will be provided as usual.
Please remember these two changes affect ONLY David Prouty High School. The remaining district school buildings will follow the originally-published school calendar with a full professional development day for faculty / staff on January 29 (no school for students) and no school on April 3 in observance of Good Friday.
The remaining three days that must be made up will be added to the end of the school year as of now. If changes due to excessive snow days are necessary, updates will be shared as soon as they are known.
