Re: When does school start in your area?

Teachers went back on July 31 and students' first day was Monday, Aug. 4. Our school district uses a balanced calendar......nine weeks on, two weeks off and a few extra weeks off in the summer. Until last week I had lived my life by semesters and school calendars, but have now retired from teaching. I am looking forward to traveling in the spring and fall.

Re: When does school start in your area?

I just passed the neighborhood public school and read the sign outside which said that school starts August 8th. Seems like it's earlier and earlier every year. I don't know why they want to open school at the hottest time of the year and pay the huge cost of air conditioning all of those buildings. But nobody asked my opinion lol.
