Like other area districts, the Mansfield City Schools are heading into the homestretch for the 2016-2017.

In a first for recent years, only two days were lost this school year for winter weather, and so for most students only five weeks remain. Students’ last day will be May 26. For seniors, the calendar is even shorter; commencement will be May 20.

The District has published a list of scheduled events and activities at each building in the remaining weeks. It is based on current available information but not all specific times or dates are listed and additional events may be announced. For more detailed information, contact your school.

All schools will participate in Thursday’s (April 27) Celebration of Education presented by the Mansfield School Employees Association. The 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM program in the Mansfield Senior High commons will feature presentations by students and free food and books.
