School Year Calendar
Update the DK12 Calendar for the next school year.

  1. First, create the new school year calendar dates by updating and replacing the Excel File on the Calendar page.
  2. The calendar has days off for standard federal holidays: Veterans Day, Thanksgiving (2 days off), Winter Break (about 2 weeks off), Presidents Day, Spring Break (1 week off), and Memorial Day. Each year Day 1 starts the Tuesday after Labor Day.
  3. Save the Excel File as a PDF and also upload that new file to the Calendar page.
  4. Edit the dates in the online Web Calendar to reflect the new school year.
  5. 2022-2023 Calendar – Excel
  6. 2022-2023 Calendar – PDF

Curriculum Adjustments
You may need to make curriculum adjustments on the assignment pages, across the grade levels, based on the new Calendar dates for the year. Any quizzes/unit tests will fall on the last day of the week based on the Calendar. Adjusting the Calendar may require you to move quizzes/tests on the assignment pages so that they still fall on the last day of the week. This is usually in the area near the Thanksgiving break.
2021-2022 ADJUSTMENTS: Day 106 – (this is done)
