Start & End Dates for California Schools 2023 - 2024 📚
As a parent or guardian, one of the most important questions you may have is when the new school year starts in California. This is a crucial time to plan ahead and prepare your children for the upcoming academic year. In this post, we'll answer the question "When does school start in California?" and provide you with all the necessary information you need to know.
In California, the start date for the school year is determined by each individual school district. However, the state of California requires that all public schools must start no later than August 31st and end no later than June 15th. This means that the start date for the school year can vary from district to district and even from school to school within the same district.

In addition to the start date, it's also important to keep in mind other important dates such as the first day of classes, holidays, and early release days. These dates can affect the school schedule and should be taken into consideration when planning ahead.
