TPS Budget Information and feedback on calendar proposal for 4 day week in January/February 2027 for budget savings.
Families, as you know the majority of school districts in the state are facing financial issues and are having to make serious cuts to their budgets. These are due to declining enrollments in many districts as well as shortfalls in education funding. TPS has been working to find the cuts in areas that would NOT affect the staffing, needed curriculum purchases or the students.
We are proposing a school calendar to start on August 31, 2026 and also to go to a 4 day school week in January and February ONLY. We will still be out of school in May. We would be not have school on January 4, 11, and 25. (The 18th is MLK day and already off.)
We would not have school on February 1, 8, 22. (February 15 is President's day and already off.)
This is a total of 6 Monday's that we would not have school. The cost savings is in electricity and fuel. Teachers are also asked to do their part and make personal appointments so that we save on substitute teacher costs.
We never want to cause a hardship, but our district must also make budget cuts. We have worked too hard the past 8 years to get where we are. We would like you to have an opportunity to give input before the final calendar is approved in June. This does NOT include the daycare at this time. We appreciate your input.
