* = Meetings held at Holiday Inn Airport.
For further calendar information, call MCSBA at (585) 328-1972.

Red print in the calendar below indicates MCSBA membership meetings or learning activities.

The Monroe County School Calendar Committee recommends a calendar
of at least 180 shared school days to member districts.
NOTE:     The calendars are labeled TENTATIVE.
                    State law mandates that each district establish its own calendar
                    but member school districts adhere as closely as possible
                    to the recommendations of the Calendar Committee.

2011-12 Recommended School Calendar

NOTE: From 2012 onward, the Spring Break will occur during the SECOND full week of April
to accommodate the revised Regents spring testing schedule.
