Darien Elementary School (3-4)

When backpacks are dropped and lesson plans wait,
When bells stop ringing and mornings start late,
When homework takes naps and emails slow down, 
Winter Break has officially come to town!

When alarms take a break and laptops close tight,
When bells stop ringing and mornings start late,
When teachers stop grading and students say “YES!”
You know Winter Break has officially come to town!

From December 22 through January 2,
There’s NO SCHOOL, on the schedule, enjoy what you do!
Sleep in, stay cozy, recharge and unwind,
This break is for everyone, students, families and staff alike.

📚 Classes return on Monday, January 5, 2026,
With fresh energy, big smiles, and ready to shine in the New Year.

We hope the days ahead are filled with laughter, rest, traditions, and a little extra holiday magic. Whether you’re traveling, relaxing at home, or making new memories, we wish you a joyful and safe winter break.

From all of us at the Delavan-Darien School District, Happy Holidays to the best #CometNation family around! 💙💛 Enjoy every minute, you’ve earned this break!
