This is the announcement on Durfee's Home Page:

There has been a change in the first day of school for DURFEE STUDENTS ONLY.

With the turnover of our new school building now moving to August 30th, a decision was made to delay the start of school for Durfee students.  We made this decision to give staff three days to get their classrooms ready for students and to finalize details to bring students back to school.

To support an orderly opening and orientation for all students, we will begin by welcoming Senior and Sophomore students on Tuesday, September 7th.  Freshman and Junior students will report on Wednesday, September 8th. All students will report on September 9th. We are using a staggered approach to our opening to provide all students with an opportunity to tour the entire building and become familiar with it.  We will also hold grade assemblies to review procedures and safety protocols.

All students will receive a letter from their new vice principal this week.  Student schedules will be visible in their Aspen accounts beginning tomorrow.  Also, students can pick up copies of their schedule tomorrow, August 26th and Friday, August 27th, from 10AM to 12PM in the North Parking lot.

The school day for Durfee High School is 7:55 A.M. - 2:55 P.M.
