Crossroads Elementary is the only elementary school in Saint Paul operating on a year-round calendar. One of the greatest advantages cited to a year-round calendar is the availability of additional learning opportunities through Intersessions. Our year-round calendar is roughly nine weeks on and three weeks off. This amounts to the same number of student days as a traditional calendar with the extended summer break broken into three-week breaks in November, February, and May. During two of those three weeks off, we offer optional programming. Intersessions are open to all Crossroads students in grades K-5. Intersession is not open to Pre-K students.  

Watch for Intersession registration and sign-up as soon as possible. Space is limited and students will be admitted based on a first come, first serve basis.  While wait lists are rare, these instances do occur. Submit your registration early to reserve your spot.

An Intersession day focuses on math, reading and writing instruction. We also provide enrichment opportunities. Students will participate in thematic units and field trips that will enrich their learning experiences.
