The public school board approved the new school calendar this week.
Keewatin-Patricia decided to make the move after conducting an on-line survey of parents, students and staff.
It calls for classes to begin after the September long weekend, with classes to run a few days later in June.
While the KP Trustees have approved the new school calendar, it also needs to have the other board's
in the region approve it, in order to co-ordinate school bus service.
