ROISD Board approves 2023-24 School Calendar

ROISD 2023-2024 School Calendar

 

The final calendar provides a focus on academic needs while meeting state-required Career Technical Education (CTE) minutes of instruction and the desire for additional breaks for students and staff throughout the school year.

 

“We truly poured over the input from parents, staff, and students,” stated ROISD Superintendent Brenda Sanford. “We have made multiple revisions based on our community opinions and desires, changing regulations, and assessment windows, all with the goal of striking that balance that best serves all students in grades Pre-K through 12 and our staff.”

 

“With a small addition of minutes at elementary and middle school, plus extra time at the high school to meet the CTE required minutes of instruction, we can provide the same level of instruction across fewer days, allowing our students and staff a few extra days to recharge each semester,” added Superintendent Sanford.

 

“We look forward to planning a fantastic school year for 2023-2024 that is value-added for student learning and a healthy teaching and learning environment,” concluded Superintendent Sanford.
