School will begin two hours late for all students on Sept. 24 and Oct. 29, 2024, and Jan. 28 and April 1, 2025. Staff will use the time for data-driven work to improve teaching and learning across Omaha Public Schools. Staff will take attendance as they do on a regularly scheduled school day. Schedule conflicts will not be considered an excused absence.

Students currently enrolled in before-school programs will be able to arrive at the program at their usual time and receive breakfast. Breakfast will not be provided for students not enrolled in the before-school program. Lunch will be served to all students.

The majority of students receiving transportation will follow their regular bus route schedule shifted forward by two hours. Student transportation will inform families directly if their transportation will be impacted beyond the two-hour shift.
