Good evening: This is Bryan Pawlicki Principal of C. Milton Wright High School asking everyone to check their email and read the C. Milton Wright Newsletter for the month of May, 2026. In this edition you will find information about the calendar in May, Class of 2026 reminders, Testing and Dual Enrollment, news and updates from several departments and updates from our parent groups. Please use the links below to access the Newsletter.
May is Mental Health Awareness Month. Harford County Public Schools is committed to supporting the mental health and well-being of our students, staff, and families. Throughout May, we will be sharing resources and information to help our community thrive inside and outside the classroom.

The Harford County Board of Education has approved an adjustment to the 2026-2027 calendar involving built-in inclement weather days. Schools and offices will now be closed on March 1, June 1, and April 12, 2027, and those days will be used as makeup days, in the order listed, only if needed due to inclement weather cancellations.
The adjustment reflects guidance from the Maryland State Board of Education, which has expressed a preference for makeup days to be distributed throughout the school year, and the use of virtual instruction, rather than adding days to the end of the school year.
The full, updated 2026–2027 school calendar is available here. En Español.
