Seattle Public Schools policy states that, “no religious belief or non-belief should be promoted by the School District or its employees, and none should be disparaged.” However, we understand that the students, staff members, and families in our school communities may observe many different religious holidays, and we strive to take these holidays into account when scheduling activities.

This calendar of religious holidays and observances will help staff identify dates that might prove challenging for some students and families to participate in school or district events.
