Thanksgiving Break
The students will be thrilled when November 18 is upon them. The biggest reason is the last day of classes before Thanksgiving break. Students can head home for the holidays and enjoy a wonderful Turkey dinner with their friends and loved ones. This break also means students are drawing close to the end of the semester, as finals will be taking place shortly after. The official Thanksgiving break dates for students are November 23 through November 27.
