What is a multi-track year-round calendar?

Year-round schools follow a multi-track year-round calendar and attend school for 180 days, just like students on the traditional calendar. The main difference between the two calendars is the days that the students are in school and the days they have off for vacation.

The multi-track year-round calendar organize students into four groups or “tracks.” Each track follows a different schedule. The schedules are staggered so that at any given time, three of the tracks are in school and one track is out on break. This system is a “45/15 Schedule,” meaning the pupils are in school for 45 days, then off for 15, throughout the year.

The school year in a year-round school begins in early July for students on tracks 1, 2 and 3. Students on track 4 begin the school year 15 days later – when track 3 takes its first break. Year-round students have the same holidays as those on the traditional calendar.

Brier Creek Elementary School Mission:

The Brier Creek Elementary School community will focus on student learning so that all students K-5 will meet or exceed growth expectations and will learn to become a part of a community of lifelong learners.
