When Does the School Year End for Ya'll?

I actually have kids in two different school districts so one gets out May 25th and the other June 5th. They both start back the week of Aug 20th (a couple of days apart).

We're out May 31 and start back late in August. I teach high school seniors. Prom is tomorrow, and then graduation is just around the corner. I think I'm more excited than they are, though! I can't wait for some summer fun with my boys!! :)

We're out the very beginning of June and start back the last week of August.

I can't wait for school to be OUT! YAY!!!
(I think I'm more excited than my son!)

Last I was told my daughter is out of school June 22nd and returns September 5th. My son will be out prior to her due to his type of education however as far as I know at this moment will be starting on 9/5 as well. I cannot wait for summer break.

Last day of school is June 8 and we start again the day after Labor Day, Sept. whatever that is. We have a state law in MN that public schools cannot start before Labor Day unless they apply for a special exemption. It is, at least in part, to promote tourism and the cabin season, especially in the northern part of the state, and to maximize attendance at our large, popular State Fair (really, it's a big deal here).

I am in Frisco. Our last day is 6-1. But we are off that Monday and the Friday before, so the last 2 weeks of school are only 4 days each. We retun Aug 27. We used to start on 8-15 but in the past few years, they have delayed the start date. We live in Texas, so its misserably hot until Oct!

last day of school is June 14th and they'll go back after Labor Day.

Exactly as Cindy said for us. My daughter goes to a "different" sort of public school here in MN. Perpich Center for Arts Education. Its a pblic school, but not open to just anyone who applys (application/audition/acceptance policy).

But they follow that general MN system. Start after Labor day and get out in the first week of June. My daughter Graduates June 8th and has classes right up to the day before.

Sadly, for next year and college, I won't get to spend her 18th birthday with her :-(

Her birthday is August 31st and we always got to spend it together right before she went back to school. She will already be at College for 2 weeks. And its even a Friday this year. Sad Momma.

This past school year we started Aug 18 and they get out next Thursday, the 17th.

My daughter is done today and doesn't go back until August 15th!! 3 months and four day break!!! I'm jealous!

June 20th is our last day. Most of the time, thanks to snow days we end around June 28th. But I live in New England. This year we're out on time because we had a mild winter. We go back to school for the new year on August 28th. It's actually kind of shocking to get two full months of vacation for once.

Last day is June 6th and they go back August 20th, but they get the week of Thanksgiving off and two weeks for Christmas and New Year’s. They also get a week for spring break and holiday's in between.

I don't remember having so much time off during the school year, but it's been awhile.

My son's preschool is out May 23rd, and all the public schools in my district are done June 15th. I think it was supposed to be the 19th but they made it earlier becuase we didn't use any snow days. They start school back up again after Labor Day in Sept.

Because of snow make up days, we're not out until 6/25! We go back the Wednesday afte labor day.

We're out on June 18th, and we go back Aug. 30th.

My kids go until June 8th this year, which is a week earlier than planned because we had a crappy winter - no snow days.

They go back Aug 24th or somewhere around that date. It's always a Wednesday.

We are off for Memorial Day May 28 and last day is May 30. So, only a two day week. And, they will probably get out early on the 30th?? First day of school for 2012-2013 is August 17th.

We go until June 13th! But we don't go back until after Labor Day wkend - beginning of Sept.

School year "officailly" ends June 6th, but we do virtual school so my son will be done with school as of Monday when he completes his last test online, and my daughter will have maybe another 2 weeks. She hasn't worked as hard or quickly as my son all year. I am hoping that she works hard the next couple of weeks so we can have an "extended" summer though. I am enrolling them back in the traditional public school next year though, so we will see how things go. :)

Our last day is June 20th and we go back September 5th. I am a school bus driver and I am sooooo looking forward to the summer break! LOL

Our last day is June 18 (no snow days this year) and we go back August 29, which is a week earlier than we started this year. It's 10.5 weeks but seems shorter. The earlier start is because there are more days off next year due to how Yom Kippur and Rosh Hoshannah fall in September, having no school at all on election day (dumb idea if you ask me), and having 6 days off for winter break instead of 5.

Wow some of these breaks are really long! How do your states manage to fit in 180 days of school with 12-13+ weeks of summer break? Do you get fewer breaks during the school year? We get a week in December, one in February and one in April. What does the rest of the country do?

Last day June 8.
First day August 20

My daughter's last day of school(kindergarten) is May 24 and she starts 1st grade August 8.

We are in Plano. The last day of classes is June 1. The first day of class will be August 27,

However, my daughter is a Varsity cheerleader, we have the month of June and 2 weeks of July relatively free. She'll be back on campus July 23 to prep for the upcoming year for cheer, have cheer camp,officially start the workouts and training but most of the girls are already set with schedules over the summer for continued training.

summer break is May 24 to Aug 13

Let's see. Last day of school here is May 23rd, first day of school next year is Aug 15th.

Our last day is May 21 (half day on a Monday to make up for one snow day) and we return Aug 15.

I HATE the school calendar here (Our last district was last week in June to first week in Aug, only 6 weeks), but the district we're in now is slightly better with 9 weeks.

Out June 22nd
Start Sept 5th

In no small part, it's because the vast majority of families in our area are dual income. People can't afford to pay for 12 weeks of summer vacation :P Demographically the area we're in now is more dichotomous... A lot more affluence AND poverty. Below the poverty line and childcare is free-greatly reduced. More affluent = more able to pay for summer care.

I MISS 12 weeks of summer & 3 weeks of winter break.

We homeschooled for 4 years, and there we schooled year round, but as homeschoolers I was actually WITH my son. Only 6 weeks of summer and 1 week of Xmas break was miserable.

this is a crazy year...we didn't use all of our snow days. School lets out on the 17th! & it's a 1/2 day.

The next week is the Band Trip to Florida...so our son will be gone all week.

He has 2 Scout weeks in June/July.

& then Band Camp starts July 23rd & runs for 2 weeks, taking us right up to Aug 9th when school starts again.

Totally sucks. I hate early May release, prefer release to coincide with pools opening in our area. & I HATE early August starts. We start well before our college systems. Aaaargh. :) Just call me Negative Nelly!

The last day for us is the 24th and they go back the first week in Aug.
