Alexandria seeks feedback on academic calendars

The Alexandria, Virginia, public school system has released three proposed calendars for school years 2022-2023 and 2023-2024, and is looking for the public’s input on the options.

The proposed calendars for 2022-2023 are more alike than different. Classes will again begin before Labor Day — the upcoming 2021-2022 year is the first year for that change.

Classes begin Aug. 23, 2022, and end June 12, 2023, for 176 student days. The holidays for all three calendars:

  • Labor Day break includes Friday, Sept. 2 and Monday, Sept. 5
  • Thanksgiving break from Nov. 23 to Nov. 25
  • 10 days for winter break from Dec. 19 to Dec. 30
  • Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Jan. 16
  • Presidents Day, Feb. 20
  • Spring Break from April 3 to April 7
  • Memorial Day, May 29

You can see the options for both years, check your preference and leave comments .
