How to add a school event or closure to the calendar
- 1In the sidebar under Communication, click "Calendar"
- 2Click "Add event" in the page header
- 3In the "Add school event" dialog, enter a "Title" (e.g. "No school — Thanksgiving") and the "Date"; add an "End date" for multi-day events
- 4Optionally set "Start time" and "End time" — leave blank for an all-day event — and add "Details" families should know
- 5Check "School closure — no classes" if school is closed: classes drop off everyone's Today strip and the A/B rotation skips those days
- 6Click "Add event" — the event shows on everyone's calendar
- 7Click any day to open its panel: everything on that day, with "Add event" prefilled for it and a delete button on each entry
