Birmingham Public Schools, 2026-27 District Calendar

Welcome back, Maples!

As we kick off a new school year on Monday, August 31st, we wanted to share some reminders:

• There is NO SHUTTLE to Groves on the first day of school. Students with a class at Groves are to sign in at the Seaholm Media Center during that Hour. The shuttle WILL RUN on the 2nd Day, 9/3 and students with classes at Groves will go there during their scheduled class.

• A/B Lunch Schedule will be shared with students on the first day of school.

• Print a paper schedule prior to arriving at school. (Students may not access their phone to obtain their schedule.)
• Online registration needs to be completed before students can attend late registration after dismissal on Monday.

• Students who missed the Aug 18/19 registration days will have another opportunity to complete this process following the half-day dismissal on Monday, Aug 31.

• Students must have their physical Student ID on them at all times, not a picture of it on their phone. (Students may not access their phones to show a picture of their ID.)
• Senior Sunrise is August 31st at 6:45am on the football field. Students in the Class of 2027 are welcome to attend!
• With the new state mandates and updated wireless device policy, no student may use a personal electronic device from 7:50am – 2:50pm, unless specifically authorized by a staff member for an approved educational or emergency purpose. Devices should be stored in a locker, backpack or other designated storage area.

We look forward to seeing everyone for the start of the 2026-2027 school year!

Join the fun on September 27th at 9 am. The 5K and 1 Mile courses will both start and finish at Beverly Park and wind through the West Beverly neighborhood.
