2008/09 Calendar Highlights

As per tradition, our official CFIS calendar is mailed to all families in the summer prior to the start of the school year. Advance notice of important dates are listed below so as to facilitate any family planning for vacations. We value the teaching time we have with our students - extended family holidays are not allowed unless you take the Principal with you!

Here are some of the key dates for the current school year. For a complete calendar refer to the PDF documents in the left column or check the main calendar on the home page for up-to-date school events.
