Small World Preschool prepares a standard school calendar; somewhat similar to that of the Department of Education calendar, with a few exceptions at our discretion. We do not observe waiver days, teacher institute days, and several holidays, as stated on the DOE calendar. We do observe a 2-week Christmas/Holiday Break, a 1 & 1/2-week Spring Break, with the school session ending in the middle of June.
Our calendar is presented to parents/guardians upon enrollment. Any revisions (at our discretion), will be passed along to you accordingly. It is the preschool’s practice to send home questionnaires on other holidays not observed within our calendar, for staffing and curriculum adjustments.
