Common Calendar

Heritage Southwest Intermediate School District
County Wide Common School Calendar

Signed by Governor Jennifer Granholm into law on October 1, 2007, Public Act 101MCL380.1284a.

  • Be in compliance with sections 1284​ and 1284b of the School Aid Act.
  • Identify the dates for at least the next five years when schools will not be in session for a  winter holiday and spring holiday.

​​Common school calendars were required to be in place for the 2008-2009 school year. Districts operating on a trimester system were allowed to apply for a waiver. School districts that bargained a multi-year calendar prior to the legislation being enacted were not required to implement the common calendar until the calendars that were bargained expire.
