20 Jul 2023-2024 School Year Calendar for NYC Families
During the 2023–24 school year, the New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE) has set the school calendar for all public schools ranging from 3K to 12th grade. Parents of students who attend private, parochial, charter schools, NYC Early Education Centers (NYCEECs), or Family Childcare Programs should contact their child’s school for their specific school calendar.
In the event of inclement weather or any other emergency causing school buildings to be closed, all students and families must plan to participate in remote learning. Also, please be aware that each school’s Parent-Teacher Conference dates may vary from the calendar outlined below. Elementary schools in this context include any programs ranging from kindergarten (K) to grade 8, including those with 3K and Pre-K programs and those that end in grade 5. Middle schools are defined as programs serving grades 6 to 8, and high schools encompass grades 9 to 12.
