New Later Back-to-School Date for Eighth Grade Students
The date was only changed by one day, but find out when your eighth grade student needs to show up for school. Start and end times for every grade is also included in this story.
Your eighth-grader will probably be upset if you send them back to school a day early.
Originally, eighth grade students were to report to on Aug. 23. Now, to give the new seventh grade middle school students some time to get used to the new building, eighth graders won't be around until Aug. 24.
"It worked so well at the high school that the superintendent said it would be beneficial for the seventh grade students to become acclimated with a new building," said District Spokeswoman Jacquie Mazziotta.
