The Pattonville Board of Education on Dec. 12 reviewed calendars which outline important dates for the next two school years. The board is expected to vote on the calendars during the Jan. 9 board meeting. Important dates for each school year are listed below, along with links to printable draft calendars.
The calendars for the 2024-2025 and 2025-2026 school years were drafted by Pattonville’s calendar committee, which included parent, student, teacher, support staff, board member and administrator representatives. The calendar committee took into consideration survey feedback from parents, students and staff. Other factors discussed during the development of the calendars include student learning, family and staff considerations, staff professional development needs and holidays/special events. The proposed calendars also comply with Missouri public school law requiring school to start no earlier than 14 days prior to Labor Day. Features of the proposed calendars include:
- Five staff professional development days before the first day of student attendance;
- A fall break for all students;
- No school for students and a non-work day for certified staff and 10.5 month employees the day before Thanksgiving;
- High school finals completed before winter break; and
- Six potential make-up days included at the end of the school year to be used in the event of snow or emergency days during the school year.

MAKE-UP DAYS AND SUMMER SCHOOL
Six days each year are designated as possible make-up days. Depending on the situation, Pattonville may have a virtual learning day instead of making up a day at the end of the school year. On a virtual learning day, students will experience a combination of independent work with virtual support via Zoom from their classroom teachers. Specific information will be communicated based on the nature of the inclement weather or emergency situation.
All school calendars are subject to change to be in compliance with state law, including the required number of emergency days and the agreed upon number of contracted days for staff.
Summer school dates are dependent on the number of emergency days used during the regular school year and are subject to change.
