Counting the Days Until School Resumes
There's still about 7 weeks left of summer according to the 2013-2014 Pelham Union Free School District calendar. The first day of school for students is slated for Sept. 9th, which is after Labor Day.
The first day of the 2013-2014 school year Pelham Union Free School District is after Labor Day this year. School is closed for Labor Day on September 2nd and closed for Rosh Hashanah holiday September 5th and 6th. Opening day for students this fall is September 9th.
With missed days of school last year due to weather events, there is some flexibility built into the calendar for the upcoming school year. Specifically, according to the schools website, "The calendar allows for 5 snow days before it would be necessary to take back vacation days. If it is necessary to make up school days due to closings for inclement weather, etc., the days will occur in this order: May 23, April 21,14, 16, 17"
Here is the link to the school district calendar on the website.
