Joplin R-8 Board approves 2023-2024 calendar


(From Joplin Schools)

On Tuesday night, the Joplin Schools Board of Education voted to approve the 2023-24 calendar. The calendar was created and voted on by a district committee of administrators and departmentally diverse staff members in order to narrow down priorities around attendance days, staff professional development needs, standardized testing dates, holidays, semester lengths, and more.
 
The first day of school falls on Monday, August 21. The last day of school falls on Friday, May 24. As has been our recent practice, the calendar plans for the first five inclement weather days to be used as AMI (Alternate Method of Instruction) days. 

Additional inclement weather day, if needed, may be made up on Monday, Feb. 19 and/or forgiven for students.
