NYC School Calendar 2023-2024: NYC DOE Calendar

How many times do you look at the school calendar? We know, we know-we also look a it all the time! The 2023-2024 school calendar was sent out last year as we were all heading into summer after a less than normal wait that started during the pandemic.

Having the school calendar at our finger tips is important as it is how we know what days the kids will be off, when the parent teachers conferences are set to happen- basically we have a general idea of what our kids’ school schedules will look like during the school year.
