The calendar for the current year (so far just March and April), with all the schools’ activities listed, is now available on the District 96 website. Next year it’s likely that the online version will replace the spiral-bound printed calendar that is distributed at the beginning of each school year. Having the calendar online will allow corrections and changes to be made during the year.
