Last Day of School - June 12, 2019
Update from Supt. J.Nielsen
To Orchard View School District families,
Good Afternoon,
Orchard View Schools, like most other school districts is waiting to see if the legislature will take action on forgiving additional snow days. Last month the House Education Committee heard testimony on House Bill 4206, this legislation would allow the state superintendent the authority to approve waivers on state-of-emergency days for school districts. It will likely be several weeks before the legislation will make its way through the legislative process and its anybody's guess what the final decision will be. So, as of now we plan to add three days to the end of the school calendar. This means that Thursday June 6 and Friday June 7 will be normal, full (not early release) days of school, as will Monday June 10. Tuesday June 11 and Wednesday June 12 will be early release days, with June 12th being the last day of school.
Jim Nielsen, Superintendent
