When do you restart or when did you start 2005 School year?

[mackymaddyconnorsmom]

I see that a lot of schools have a 2 week break for Christmas. You probably start school earlier then us. We start September 12. When do you start or when did you start? I think you get out earlier too. Our last day of the 2005-2006 school year is June 19.

School here starts tomorrow....I think they get about 10-12 days at Christmas, depending on how it falls. School is usually out in late May unless we have a ton of snow days.

We started August 5th. Our last day will be May 19th. Just within the past few years the start of school has been moved up so that two 9 week periods can be fully completed before the kids go on Christmas break. Doing it this way allows the kids to start the new cirriculum for the 3rd grading period upon return from Christmas break instead of being expected to pick up where they left off after a two week break in the middle of the 2nd grading period.

DD12 started school August 8 and gets out May 25. She does get about 16 days off for winter break and 10 days for spring break. What I hate about school starting earlier in the year here is that 3 times she has had to brave storms because just as she is getting out of school its 3:30pm perfect time for typical FL thunderstorms.

Students start back on the 6th, but staff reports on the 1st.

NYC public schools open September 8. We get a week off for Christmas. I believe the last day of school is June 28.

In my part of NJ, we start school on September 2nd for a "half day orientation day" and then she starts her full days on September 6th. We get one week at Christmas (I didn't even realize anyone else got 2!) and we get out around June 21st depending on how many snow days we have. Also, we do not have the regular "breaks" during the school year. Instead of weeks off, they give them 5 day weekends for Spring break. (off Friday-Tuesday)

Many schools here are different, but I teach in an elementary Catholic school. The students' first day of school was August 17. We have 1 week off for Thanksgiving, 2 weeks off for Christmas, 1 week off for Mardi Gras (that's when I'll be in WDW!!) and ususally 4 days off for easter break, although it may be longer this year because of NCEA. I believe our last day of school is around May 26-27.

 

[MomofKatie]

Here in NC, we start on Thursday, 8/25. We have always had 2 weeks off for Christmas, but this year is an all-new schedule. We might not get 2 full weeks anymore (I think it's more like 7-8 days). We are out for summer the first week of June.

 

[kahluacream]

School started today for us! The last day of school depends on snow cancellations, but generally our public schools let out in early/mid-June.

 

[britts06]

School here starts August 31st. We get 1 week off for Christmas, 1 week off in February, and 1 week off in April. We get out mid June, but it usually gets extended til late June cause of snowdays.
