About this file

This document is Attachment G to BID 2027-003, a school transportation services solicitation issued by the Bethel Public Schools Board of Education in Connecticut. The attachment contains the 2027-2028 school calendar and the 2026-2027 school time schedule. The calendar indicates 186 student instructional days, inclusive of five built-in emergency closing days that will be deducted in June if unused; any additional emergency closings beyond these five days will be made up June 16-30 as needed. The school year runs from August 25, 2027 (first day of school) through approximately June 8, 2028, with the high school graduation occurring no later than June 15, 2028. The calendar includes scheduled professional learning days with early dismissals or no school, parent-teacher conference days, holiday recesses including Thanksgiving (November 24-31) and winter break (December 18-January 3), Presidents' Day Recess (February 18-21), and spring recess (April 17-21). The calendar notes that if five or more snow days are used by Presidents' Day Recess, the district will be in session on February 18 and February 21.

The 2026-2027 school time schedule specifies start and close times for regular school days, scheduled early dismissals, emergency early dismissals, and delayed openings (two-hour and three-hour delays) across all school levels: high school (7:30 a.m. to 2:10 p.m. regular day), middle school (8:15 a.m. to 2:55 p.m. regular day), elementary schools (Berry/Rockwell and Johnson at 8:55 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. regular day), and preschool programs (Circle of Friends AM and PM sessions with varying start and end times). Early dismissal times vary by school level, with elementary schools dismissing at 1:00 p.m. and middle and high schools at 12:25 p.m. and 11:40 a.m., respectively. The schedule provides the transportation service provider with the operational parameters necessary to coordinate reliable, on-time service across all district routes and school trips as outlined in the primary solicitation.
