SELBYVILLE, DE - The Indian River School District (IRSD) has announced changes to the school district calendar after school days were extended last month.
On March 31, IRSD added 20 minutes to the school day to make up for lost days due to weather cancellations. The school district now says that change has resulted in unused surplus hours, allowing them to push the final day of school earlier.

-Last day of school for Grades K-11 is now Wednesday, June 11
