2014-15 School Calendar Adopted

At its February meeting, the Governing Board of the Mohave Valley Elementary School District adopted the school calendar for the 2014-15 school year.

Superintendent Whitney Crow noted only minor changes from this year’s calendar to the next. “Next year school will begin on a Thursday” noted Crow. “This change comes from the suggestion by teachers to allow two days simply to get to know each other, and to be able to establish class routines and procedures before jumping into the academics with both feet the following Monday. The change also helps ease students back into the school routine with only two days the first week of school”.
