Spotswood School District Superintendent Jeffrey Bicsko announced that the 2025-26 school calendar has been extended by one day, with the final day of school for students and staff now scheduled for Friday, June 19 instead of the previously planned Thursday, June 18. The change is due to the district using three snow days this past winter.

Why it matters

The extension of the school calendar by one day is a common occurrence when a district uses more snow days than were originally built into the academic calendar. This ensures students receive the required number of instructional days for the school year.

The details

Spotswood School District had two snow days built into the 2025-26 calendar, but used one day in January and two days in February due to significant winter storms. The Spotswood Board of Education has already approved the 2026-27 academic calendar, which includes three snow days.

• The 2025-26 school year will now end on Friday, June 19 instead of Thursday, June 18.
• The Spotswood Board of Education approved the 2026-27 school calendar in January, which includes three snow days.

What’s next

The Spotswood School District will continue to monitor weather conditions and make any necessary adjustments to future academic calendars.
