Approved by the Irving ISD Board of Trustees at a meeting on January 21, the calendar truly incorporates the thoughts and opinions that the Irving ISD community expressed surveys administered last fall. The approved option, Option A, had students breaking for summer May 27, while Option B had students breaking for summer June 3.

A total of 1,627 respondents took the survey, with 65.5 percent voting for Option A and 34.5 percent of respondents voting for Option B.
