school calendar

Year's class dates

A school calendar is the schedule of dates governing an academic year—when classes begin and end, when breaks fall, and when holidays occur.

Districts publish school calendars so families can plan around them: Check the school calendar for spring break dates.

The term also refers to the physical or digital document itself.
