Ottumwa Community Schools is excited to announce our school calendar breaks for the 2024-2025 academic year providing students, parents, guardians and staff with these important dates now so families can plan ahead and plan accordingly.

"We understand the importance of providing our community with clear and timely information regarding the school calendar," said Superintendent McGrory. "Our goal is to support our students and families by giving them ample time to plan and enjoy their holiday and spring breaks."
The Ottumwa Schools administration encourages all members of the community to mark these dates on their calendars and stay tuned for any further updates including the start state of the academic year.
