Coweta Schools adopt both 2023-24, 2024-25 Calendars
From Coweta County Schools Press Release
Following public input, the Coweta County Board of Education approved new academic-year calendars for the 2023-24 and 2024-25 school years at its November meeting on Tuesday.
Two calendar options for each school year can be found in the links below:
The school board adopted the Option 1 calendar that was proposed to the public in September. That calendar option was modified, based on survey input, to move a Monday teacher workday in October to staff pre-planning days in August, and continue holding that Monday as a student and employee Fall Break holiday.
The adopted calendars closely follow the calendar used by the school system in recent years. School starts Wednesday, August 2, in 2023. An October Fall Break weekend, a full week Thanksgiving Break, a two-week Christmas and New Year’s Break has been included, as well as a one-week Winter Break in February and Spring Break in April.
The calendars maintain 180 days of student instruction, divided into two 90-day semesters (or 89/91 days or 88/92 days). The first semester concludes before the start of holidays in December to allow for high school course completion and final exams prior to the Christmas and New Year’s break.
The calendars were adopted by the board following two months of public input through an online survey.
Just over 72 percent of respondents preferred the proposed Option 1 calendar, out of 1,560 people who took the survey. The Option 2 calendar shortened the Christmas and New Year’s break and started the school year slightly later in August.
The survey also asked participants to rate how important it is to maintain the traditional Coweta school-year holidays in the upcoming school-year calendars.
77 percent of respondents said that the two-day fall break (four-day weekend, three-day employee weekend) was important to them. 82 percent said the full-week Thanksgiving Break was important to maintain, 81 percent said the full two-week Christmas and New Year’s Break was important to maintain, and 70 percent of respondents said the full-week February (Winter) break was important to maintain in school calendars going forward.
The results of the survey and respondents’ comments and suggestions were provided to the school board to inform their decision.
Coweta Schools 2023-2024 Calendar
Coweta Schools 2024-2025 Calendar
The Calendar from Jan – Jun 2023 are not in line that concerns the dates according to my calendar. Jan 1st was on a Sunday, Feb. 1st was on a Wednesday, March 1st was on a Wednesday ( March calendar is the same as February). In March Coweta County was off Thursday March 16th and Friday March 17th. This could confuse a lot of parents .
The January to June portion of the calendar for 2023-2024 is actually showing the 2024 portion of the school year. So the calendar presented is correct.
