Change in school calendar

The Lapeer Community Schools Board of Education and the Lapeer Education Association have agreed to a change in the school calendar that moves the end of the second trimester back a week to March 11.

The calendar needed to be revised because of a change in the Michigan Merit Exam testing dates for 2010-2011. Those exams will be given on March 1, 2, and 3.

The new schedule extends the end of the second term for students to Thursday, March 10. This will move high school exams to March 8, 9 and 10. March 11 is a records day for teachers and there is no school for students. March 4 will be a regular school day for students.
