School calendar

Where to get Wicomico County school calendar PDFs and revised dates

The official Open WCPS Calendars page is the safest starting point for school-year planning. The calendar page states that the current 2025-2026 calendar was revised on Feb. 26, 2026 to use all three make-up days, and the 2025-2026 calendar is shown at the bottom of the page.

Parents commonly use the calendar page to check the first student day, winter break, spring break, professional development days, early dismissals, report card dates, makeup days, graduation dates, central office closure days, and last-day planning. Because Wicomico County can revise calendars for weather makeup days, old screenshots and saved PDFs can become wrong.

The 2026-2027 school calendar was approved by the Board of Education at its March 2026 meeting, with the school year beginning Sept. 1 according to district news posts. Families should still open the official calendar page for the final posted PDF before using those dates for childcare, travel, work schedules, sports, medical appointments, or family planning.

πŸ“„ Use official calendar PDFs

Open the WCPS calendar page instead of relying on old downloads or shared images.

🌨️ Watch makeup days

Calendar revisions can happen after weather closures or systemwide schedule changes.

πŸŽ“ Check graduation separately

Graduation dates and times may appear on the calendar or district news updates, but confirm with the school.

⚠️ Recheck near the date

Emergency closures, weather, and Board action can affect school operations.

Calendar planning tip: For school-level open houses, activities, testing dates, field trips, athletics, and club events, also check your child’s individual school page or app feed.

Office contact

Wicomico County BOE office address, phone number, fax and email

Wicomico County Public Schools lists its central office at 2424 Northgate Drive Suite 100, Salisbury, MD 21801. The district phone number is 410-677-4400, the fax number is 410-677-4444, and the district footer lists comments@mywcps.org.

The official Contact Us page also lists department contacts, including Enrollment at 410-677-5226. For central office visits, use the current district page and call first, especially during holidays, weather closures, summer schedule changes, or public comment pre-registration windows.

Do not confuse the central office with the Board meeting auditorium. The Watch Board Meetings page lists the Board of Education Auditorium at 101 Long Avenue, Salisbury, MD 21804 for monthly Board meetings. If you are attending a meeting, use the meeting page location, not only the central office address.

Board meetings

How to check Wicomico BOE meetings, livestream, agendas and documents

The official Open Watch Board Meetings page is the first place to check before attending or watching a monthly Wicomico County Board of Education meeting. The page posts the next meeting date, meeting time, Board of Education Auditorium location, closed-session timing when applicable, agenda availability, public comment pre-registration, livestream details, and video archive direction.

The meeting page states that the monthly meeting is scheduled in the Board of Education Auditorium at 101 Long Avenue, Salisbury, MD 21804. It also explains that the agenda is generally available by the Friday before the meeting through the official meeting portal.

Wicomico also uses a Diligent/Community public site for meeting calendars, agendas, document library items, and recent meetings. That page states regular public meetings of the Board of Education of Wicomico County are normally held on the second Tuesday of each month, and that all meetings except closed sessions are open to the public.

1

Open the Watch Board Meetings page

Start from the official district page for the next meeting, livestream, and public comment instructions.

2

Confirm date, time and location

Monthly meetings may list closed-session timing before the open portion begins.

3

Use the agenda portal

Use the Diligent/Community or BoardDocs-linked agenda page for meeting documents and recent meeting information.

4

Check public comment rules

Pre-registration may be required and public comment slots may be limited.

Meeting reminder: If you plan to speak, watch, attend, or rely on board action, open the current Watch Board Meetings page before making plans.

Public comments

Public comment pre-registration, speaking limits and written materials

The Watch Board Meetings page explains that pre-registration for public comments is required when posted. It also says public comments during the Board meeting may be limited to 20 participants. If all speaking slots are not filled through pre-registration, people may be able to register in person at the meeting venue on a first-come, first-served basis in the hour before the scheduled start time.

The page says only verbal comments are permitted during the public comment session of a Board meeting, and that no signs or posters may be displayed by the public during board meetings. Written, printed, audio, or video material may be submitted by email to comments@mywcps.org.

The Board chairman may limit comments in length or restrict comments concerning personnel or student matters that clearly identify individuals, appeals or legal matters before the Board, negotiations, or topics that are more appropriate for closed session or private handling with staff.

πŸ“ Pre-registration

Use the posted public comment pre-registration window before the meeting.

πŸŽ™οΈ Speaker limit

Public comment slots may be limited, so do not wait until the meeting starts.

πŸ“§ Written material

Written, printed, audio, or video material may be submitted to comments@mywcps.org.

πŸ” Privacy caution

Do not publicly identify private student, personnel, legal, or confidential matters.

Board and policies

Board members, agenda portal, public documents and policy review

The official Open Board Members page lists current Board members and member biographies. Because board roles, terms, and officer titles can change, users should check that page before naming board members in public comments, articles, newsletters, or school advocacy materials.

The official Open Wicomico Meeting Portal provides access to meeting calendar information, recent meetings, document library items, and subscription options for meeting notifications. The portal notes that documents should be verified directly with the district for accuracy and currency.

For policy information, use the Board of Education page, BoardDocs-linked materials, public comment notices, and official policy review pages. Do not depend on old downloaded policies unless the current official page confirms they are still active.

Parent portal

Family Portal, Parents/Guardians & Students page and app links

WCPS links Open Family Portal from its official navigation. Families commonly use Family Portal to monitor student grades, attendance, schedules, and school information when available for the student’s grade level or school.

The Open Parents/Guardians & Students page is the broader parent resource hub. It includes alphabetized links for family resources, state report card information, meal menus, school handbooks, forms, notices, and other student-support pages.

For account access problems, start with the official Family Portal link or ask the student’s school. Do not create accounts or enter student login information on pages that are not linked from the official WCPS website.

πŸ“Š Grades and attendance

Use Family Portal for grade and attendance access when available.

πŸ‘¨β€πŸ‘©β€πŸ‘§ Parent hub

Use the Parents/Guardians & Students page for family resources and common links.

πŸ“± District app

WCPS links iOS and Android app downloads from the official district footer.

πŸ” Login warning

Never enter parent or student portal details on unofficial websites.

Enrollment

Enrollment, registration, school assignment and contact help

The WCPS home page links to Enrollment & Registration, and the official Contact Us page lists Enrollment with phone 410-677-5226. Families should use the official district site for current enrollment steps, required documents, address verification, grade placement, and school assignment information.

Enrollment is often school-year specific. Requirements can change for prekindergarten, kindergarten, transfer students, new residents, returning students, and families with custody or residency questions. Do not rely on an old checklist unless the current district page confirms it.

For fastest help, families should keep student documents organized and contact the enrollment office or the assigned school before uploading private records. If you are unsure which school serves your address, use official WCPS enrollment guidance or contact the district directly.

🧾 Enrollment phone

The Contact Us page lists Enrollment at 410-677-5226.

🏠 Residency matters

School assignment and registration often depend on verified address and grade level.

πŸ“„ Documents

Use current official registration instructions before preparing birth, residency, custody, or health documents.

πŸ” Privacy warning

Do not upload private student records through unofficial enrollment pages.

Records

Records request, transcripts, forms and notices

The WCPS home page links to Records Request, and the Open Forms & Notices page includes a Records Request link for transcripts and related records. If you need a transcript, graduation verification, school record, or student document, start from the official WCPS site.

Current students may need to work through the school counselor, registrar, or school office. Former students may need the official records request process. Public records, student records, personnel records, and transcript requests are not the same thing, so use the correct official path.

Student records include private information. Do not send Social Security numbers, IDs, custody documents, birth certificates, health records, transcripts, or payment information to unofficial websites or unknown email addresses.

πŸ“„ Records Request

Use the official Records Request or Forms & Notices page for transcripts and related records.

πŸŽ“ Current students

Ask the student’s school for counselor, registrar, or transcript help.

🧾 Forms & Notices

Use the official forms page for student/family forms and notices.

πŸ” Privacy warning

Use official WCPS pages only for private student records.

Closings and delays

School closings, delays, central office status and weather makeup days

Wicomico County school status notices are posted through the official website, school live feeds, district app, and social channels. District live feed notices may state whether schools are closed, delayed, whether central office opens on delay, whether breakfast is served, and whether a makeup day is being used.

Do not assume every weather status affects students, staff, central office, and school offices the same way. A closure notice may say schools are closed while central office opens with a delay, or that breakfast will not be served during a delay. Always read the full current status message.

Weather closures can affect the instructional calendar. The WCPS calendar page and district notices should be checked after major weather events so families know whether makeup days, virtual instruction, or revised calendar dates are being used.

Weather planning tip: Check the official WCPS site or app close to the school day. Do not rely only on old text messages or reposted closure graphics.

Schools

Find Wicomico schools, high school pages and campus contacts

The WCPS website includes a Schools menu for school-level pages. These pages are important because school offices publish local announcements, contact information, staff directories, calendars, handbooks, athletics, guidance, attendance details, and campus-specific forms.

High school pages and state listings include James M. Bennett High, Parkside High, Wicomico High, Wicomico County Evening High, and Mardela Middle & High. School-level pages may be the best source for open house dates, graduation reminders, counseling forms, student schedules, and local school announcements.

Use the central office for districtwide questions. Use the student’s school office for attendance, pickup, classroom, counselor, transcript, daily schedule, school form, or event questions.
