Holiday and Vacation Schedule

Bird’s Nest generally follows the Hinckley-Big Rock CUSD 429 calendar. If District 429 is closed due to inclement weather, Bird’s Nest will also close. Bird’s Nest will remain open during parent-teacher conferences and teacher in-service days. We aim to remain open during early dismissals or delayed starts when safely possible.
