Plan Ahead for a Smoother School Year! ✏️📅

We all know how helpful it is to plan in advance—whether it’s scheduling appointments, planning a vacation, or organizing a visit with family out of town. Taking a little time now can save a lot of stress later!

To make it easier for you, we’ve put together a flyer that lists all the 3-day weekends, 4-day breaks, and full weeklong breaks for this school year. 📆✨

Use it to map out your time, avoid conflicts, and make the most of every break. Whether it’s a quick getaway or a much-needed rest at home, planning ahead helps everyone stay on track.

📎 Check out the flyer attached to start planning today!
