Board adjusts school calendars for the 2022-2023 school year

Revised School Calendars for 2022-2023

OCS previously established 2022-2023 school calendars for all of our Traditional Schools and for our one Year-Round School, Hillsborough Elementary School (HES). These calendars were first approved in February, and have now been revised to allow for the following key adjustments:  

  1. November 8, Election Day 2022, schools will be closed.  This will be a teacher Workday.
  2. The last day of school for the school year will be a three-hour early dismissal for all students. 
  3. The approved inclement weather plan we will use in the event of school closings due to severe weather is listed on each calendar.
