February 10, 2023—Each year Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board (HPEDSB) gathers input from employees, parents/guardians, students, community members and community partners about the dates for the school year calendar. This feedback supports the version of the calendar that is submitted to the Ministry of Education, which provides final approval of the school year calendar.
HPEDSB coordinates the dates with the Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board, and the Limestone District School Board, due to having common bus schedules through Tri-Board Student Transportation Services. To ensure alignment with our partner school boards, some PA day options may be subject to change.
Please provide input on the three proposed options by completing the 2023-2024 School Year Calendar survey. The survey closes Tuesday, February 21, 2023 at 4:00 PM.
