Planning a family vacation, appointment, or special trip this school year? 📅
With 177 student attendance days on the academic calendar, every day of learning matters. To help families plan ahead, we've created a Vacation Planner that highlights major school breaks throughout the year.
Whenever possible, we encourage families to schedule vacations, appointments, and other activities during school breaks to maximize student attendance and learning opportunities.
The complete district calendar is always available at almacardinals.org.
This planner is intended as a quick reference for students and families. #ProudToBeACardinal
