LAST CHANCE: Purchase School Calendars

JCHS scholarship committee selling hard copies of district calendar. Order deadline is Thursday, June 21.

The Caldwell-West Caldwell School District decided to stop printing the annual school calendar a couple of years ago to save on paper and printing costs.

Caldwell-West Caldwell superintendent recommends a shorter winter break for 2012-2013.

Caldwell-West Caldwell families should plan on enjoying the upcoming week off since the school district's winter break may be abbreviated to a long weekend next year.  At Monday’s Board of Education meeting, Superintendent Daniel Gerardi proposed taking only Monday and Tuesday rather than a full week off in 2012-2013 in order to end the school year by June 21, 2013. Otherwise, Gerardi said, the school year would extend to June 26, which is a Wednesday, and later in the month than typical. Gerardi said the proposed change would only affect the 2012-2013 school year since there are anomalies in the calendar, such as New Year’s Day falling on a Tuesday.
