**************
Please note that the first day of school for students for the 2013-2014 school year will be August 28, 2013 . This is an exception to our usual practice due to the insertion of the new Keystone Exams in the academic calendar and the timing of religious holidays in September.
Labor Day falls on September 2 in 2013. In the past, students would normally begin school after Labor Day when that holiday occurred on September 1, 2, or 3, and before Labor Day when the holiday fell on September 4, 5, 6, or 7.
