| Any indication when next year's calendar might be issued? Need to know when school starts in August. What does DCUM think? Aug 20 or 27? |

| You should look at the DPR camp schedule for their last session. School will probably start the next week after the last session. |

We are all guessing though. Who knows what they will do? |

The last several years DCPS has had a 9-week summer break.
That would mean back to school on Aug 20. |

| They should post it. Irresponsible not to decide. |

We'll be lucky to see a draft before March. |

| Isn't the first day of school for DCPS always the Monday before Labor Day (so 8/27 this year)? I don't think they've ever started 2 weeks before Labor Day... |

No, in 16-17 it was 2 weeks before. https://dcps.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/dcps/publication/attachments/ENGLISH%20-%202016-2017%20DCPS%20Traditional%20School%20Calendar%201-30-17.pdf And this year the first day was 8/21 https://dcps.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/dcps/publication/attachments/DCPS%20SY17-18%20Traditional%20Calendar%203-6-17.pdf |

Also - check to see if your school is an extended year school. Was there a plan to add more schools? |

DCPS always ALWAYS ALWAYS has a 9 week summer.
I've had kids in DPCS for 8 years and it has been 9 weeks for this entire time. School will start on Aug 20th. The DCPR camps end on Aug 17th this summer. They always run through the last week. This shouldn't be a question. School will start Aug 20th. |

I know, right? It isn't that hard to look at the last couple of calendars and figure this out ... |
