Did you know…

The annual school calendar is built using the BT-BOCES calendar as a template, so all component districts in the region have the same vacation days.
Some districts in other areas of the state have different vacation schedules due to their BOCES using a different template.
Next year, we have 6 snow days built into the calendar.
