School Calendar 2025-26 (revised 5/12/25)
On January 14, the WWS Board of School Trustees approved a revised 2025-26 school calendar due to road closures around the LIV Golf tournament at The Club at Chatham Hills from August 15-17, 2025. These closures will make it nearly impossible for school buses to operate in that area, so schools will be closed for students and staff on Friday, August 15, 2025.
Key changes to the revised calendar:
- The August 15 school day will now be moved to November 6 which will also be the last day of the first trimester.
November 6 was originally scheduled as a Teacher Work Day.
November 7 will remain a Teacher Work Day (grades 7-12) and a Parent Conference Day (grades K-6).
- September 24 will be an Asynchronous eLearning Day for students and a PD Collaboration Day for Teachers.
These changes ensure that we can effectively manage the impact of the tournament on our school operations while maintaining educational excellence. Thank you for your ongoing support and flexibility as we strive to provide the best possible experiences for our students and staff.
