Faculty Planning & Meeting Days; Noon Dismissal
September 2, November 11, December 23, April 28, June 16, July 21
As lead learners in the classroom, our teachers model a commitment to lifelong learning, flexibility, growth, and the desire to always improve their skills and hone their craft. In order to bring our families the high quality care and education they expect, SOWJS will close early one day each month to allow our faculty team time to meet, learn and plan together. These days will occur in each month that does not have another teacher workday or professional development day planned.
