Change in Bell Schedule for the 2012-2013 school year!

school bell 2.jpgTo provide equity regarding early and late-start elementary schools, the OUSD Board of Education adopted Board Policy 6112 in March 2007.  This policy was designed to incorporate a five-year rotation in the bell schedules of the district’s 16 elementary schools.

In August 2012, a new five-year cycle begins, thereby shifting all late-start schools (Del Rio, Garrison, Libby, Nichols, North Terrace, Foussat and South Oceanside) to early-start schedules – 8:15 a.m. to 2:55 p.m., with early dismissal on Wednesdays at 12:25 p.m.

Schools that had previously operated on the early-bell schedule (Ivey Ranch, Laurel, McAuliffe, Reynolds, San Luis Rey and Stuart Mesa) will shift to a late-start schedule – 8:55 a.m. to 3:35 p.m., with early dismissal on Wednesdays at 1:05 p.m.

Due to anticipated modernization and renovation, bell schedules for Palmquist Elementary (early) and Mission Elementary (late) will not change.  If you have any questions, please contact your child’s school site. 

Again, the rotation in the elementary bell schedule begins with the new school year in August 2012.  Middle and high schools bell schedules will remain the same as previous years.  The district appreciates your cooperation and understanding in preparing for the 2012-13 school year.

New District Calendar for Start of 2013-14 School Year

Beginning with the 2013-14 school year, the first day of class for all OUSD students will be Tuesday, August 20, 2013.  The slightly earlier start date is a result of a new district-wide calendar unanimously approved by the OUSD Board of Education.  The change was made during the board’s regularly scheduled meeting Tuesday, March 13, 2012. 

school_calendar.jpgOther minor changes regarding the revised calendar beginning in 2013-14 include a shorter Thanksgiving Week holiday and an end to the first semester at the winter break (December 20, 2013).  The last day of instruction for students will be June 4, 2014. 

The district asks that all OUSD families please take note of these changes in order to plan accordingly for the start of school in August 2013.  For questions regarding the calendar change, please call 760-966-4008.
