In accordance with policy AEA, the DeKalb County School District’s Calendar Committee is exploring calendar options for 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 school years to align with other similarly sized districts in close geographic proximity. All calendar options include the following attributes:
- Independent Learner Days – virtual school days for students and professional learning/workdays for teachers
- 180 days of instruction for students (including independent learner days)
- 190 teacher days including one evening workday comprised of parent-teacher conferences (2 per semester)
- Teacher workdays before the first day of school
- Holidays for all – Labor Day, Dr. Martin L. King, Jr. Day, and Presidents’ Day
- Thanksgiving break – one week in November
- Spring Break – one week coinciding with most metro area districts
- Last day of school for students before Memorial Day
Please complete the short survey about the calendar options. This is not a vote but rather an opportunity to receive input from all stakeholders. Your input will be used to finalize the 2022-2024 calendar recommendations that will be presented during the Board Meeting on December 13, 2021 for consideration and action. Please complete the survey only once.
