Ithaca Residents: Have Your Say on ICSD's Proposed Academic Calendar Changes
The Ithaca City School District (ICSD) is seeking community feedback on a proposed change to the 2023-2024 academic calendar.

This input will influence the board's final decision on the academic calendar.'Visit here for more details.
