    Calendar Change

    Due to numerous weather-related delays and school closures this year, we have nearly exhausted all of our banked instructional hours. In order to recover lost time and account for any potential weather disruptions moving forward, we need to make some important updates to our school calendar.

    As a result, Gates County Schools will be adjusting the following dates:

    • Friday, March 14th: The scheduled Teacher Workday will now be a student day, with an early release at 1:00 PM.

    • Thursday, April 17th: The scheduled Teacher Workday will also be a student day, with an early release at 1:00 PM.

    These changes will add a total of 8 additional hours of instructional time, which should help us meet our educational requirements for the remainder of the school year without the need to add extra days or extend the school day.

    Thank you for your time and support during these calendar updates.
