In the event families recognize these holidays, parents should notify schools. Students will be given excused absences and allowed reasonable opportunities to make up any schoolwork missed. Changes May Occur Changes to the calendar may occur as a result of inclement weather or other circumstances. If sufficient school time is lost as a result of calendar changes, and it brings the total number of school hours for the year below the state minimum requirements, the Superintendent will implement a plan for making up this time, which may require additional minutes added to the day, additional days added to the calendar, days previously identified as non-student days re‐scheduled as student day, or other appropriate calendar or schedule measures. 2021–2022 LPS Student Calendar August 16: First day of class for students in grades K-5, 6 and 9 17: Classes in session for all students in grades K-12 16–18: PLC Day—Early Dismissal 19: First day of class for PreK students 31: PLC Day—Early Dismissal September 6: Schools not in session 28: PLC Day—Early Dismissal October 15: Last day of 1st quarter 15: No School for Elementary Students 18–19: LPS Quarter Break 19: First day of 2nd quarter 26: PLC Day—Early Dismissal November 24–26: Schools not in session 29: No School for Elementary Students 30: PLC Day—Early Dismissal December 14: PLC Day—Early Dismissal 22: Last day of 2nd quarter 23: First day of LPS Semester Break January 5: Classes resume 17: Schools not in session 25: PLC Day—Early Dismissal February 18: No School for Elementary Students 21: Schools not in session 22: PLC Day—Early Dismissal March 11: Last day of 3rd quarter 14–18: LPS Quarter Break 21: First day of 4th quarter 29: PLC Day—Early Dismissal April 15: Schools not in session 26: PLC Day—Early Dismissal 28: No School—Elementary Students 29: Schools not in session May 25: PLC Day – Early Dismissal, last day of class for students Please Note: students in grades 9-12 will have PLC Day – Early Dismissal every Tuesday during the school year. 2022 Graduations All times are subject to change.
