Humble ISD is asking for community feedback on its proposed 2021-22 academic calendar, which was emailed to parents and staff Dec. 1 and will be posted on the district's website this week. Parents and staff members are being asked to submit their comments and feedback via a unique link in the email through Jan. 4, 2021.
Much like the last two years, the proposed calendar features two weeklong breaks in October and February. The first day of school is proposed for Aug. 10, while the last day of school proposed for May 27. The HISD board of trustees is set to vote on the proposed calendar at the Jan. 12 school board meeting.
In recent years, the district has determined its academic calendar in different ways. Last year, a survey was sent to participants asking which proposed holidays they saw favorably. The year prior, participants were given three calendar options to choose from.
This year, however, HISD sent only one proposed calendar. This was done because a majority of participants have been in favor of an early start date and weeklong breaks the last two years surveyed, according to the district's email.
