PARSIPPANY-TROY HILLS — It’s almost that time of year. Parsippany-Troy Hills Public Schools will open this year on Wednesday, September 6.
September 6 is one of the most dreaded days of the year for students. The Parsippany-Troy Hill Township School District has released its 2017-2018 calendar for public schools.
Grades K-12 are scheduled for 184 days, which allows for 4 snow/emergency days. If the number of snow/emergency days used is either more or less than four, the calendar will be adjusted accordingly. If more snow days are needed they will be taken from the April Break beginning with April 6.
The calendar includes important dates such as winter and spring vacations, religious holidays, federal holidays, early dismissals and parent-teacher conferences.
