Selbyville, Del. — The Indian River School District has adjusted its 2024-2025 academic calendar, allowing students and staff to conclude the school year earlier than planned. On April 28, the Indian River Board of Education approved the changes, leveraging extra instructional time added earlier this year. In March, the Indian River School District extended each school day by 20 minutes, accruing enough hours to satisfy state requirements while shortening the calendar’s end.
Students in grades PreK-11 will now finish on June 11, with preschoolers ending on June 10. Final exams at Indian River and Sussex Central high schools are scheduled for June 10 and 11. June 12 will feature a remote half-day for students and a half-day work session for teachers. Paraprofessionals will complete their duties on June 11, while teachers will finalize classroom breakdowns on June 16. Staff will also undergo Infinite Campus training on June 13. The Indian River School District’s revisions aim to streamline the academic year, offering families and educators in Selbyville an earlier start to summer while meeting educational mandates.
