Pittsburgh Public Schools Adjusts School Calendar for 2009-2010 School Year

All Schools Will Be in Session on November 3, 2009 and February 2, 2010 and Closed on Thursday, September 24 and Friday, September 25, 2009

The Board voted to adjust the District’s 2009-10 school calendar for all of its schools at this evening’s Special Legislative Session. Due to anticipated transportation disruptions as a result of the G20 Summit, students and school-based staff will dismiss early on Wednesday, September 23, 2009, and all schools will close on Thursday, September 24 and Friday, September 25, 2009.

To maintain instructional time for students, all schools will now be in session on November 3, 2009 and February 2, 2010, which previously had been scheduled as days off due to staff professional development. Under the new 2009-10 calendar, the staff professional development will occur by extending four days for staff beyond student instructional time.

The District continues to enthusiastically support the selection of Pittsburgh CAPA 6-12 as a G20 Pittsburgh Summit Venue site and will develop a selection process for students and staff who wish to participate in the event that the White House is planning at the school.
