### First day of school: August 16, 2023

The first day of school for LCISD students is August 16, 2023. This date is earlier than the first day of school in previous years, which was typically in late August or early September.

Earlier start date
The earlier start date is intended to give students more time to prepare for the STAAR tests, which are administered in the spring. The STAAR tests are used to measure student achievement and are required for students to graduate from high school.
More instructional time
The earlier start date also gives students more instructional time before the winter break. This additional instructional time can be used to help students catch up on any material they may have missed during the summer break or to provide enrichment opportunities.
Alignment with other districts
The earlier start date for LCISD aligns with the start dates of many other school districts in the Houston area. This alignment makes it easier for families with students in multiple districts to coordinate their schedules.
Preparation for college and career
The earlier start date also better prepares students for college and career. Many colleges and universities start their academic year in August, so LCISD students will be more accustomed to the college schedule when they graduate from high school.

LCISD parents and students are encouraged to mark the first day of school on their calendars and make necessary arrangements for transportation and childcare.

### Last day of school: May 26, 2024

The last day of school for LCISD students is May 26, 2024. This date is later than the last day of school in previous years, which was typically in late May or early June.

The later end date is intended to give students more time to complete their coursework and prepare for the STAAR tests, which are administered in the spring. The STAAR tests are used to measure student achievement and are required for students to graduate from high school.

The later end date also gives teachers more time to complete grading and other end-of-year tasks. This additional time can help to ensure that students receive their final grades in a timely manner and that teachers have adequate time to prepare for the next school year.

LCISD parents and students are encouraged to mark the last day of school on their calendars and make necessary arrangements for childcare and transportation.

### Total number of school days: 180

The LCISD 2023-2024 school year will consist of 180 school days. This is the same number of school days as in previous years.

The LCISD school calendar is designed to provide students with the maximum amount of instructional time while also taking into account the need for breaks and holidays. The school year is divided into four quarters, each of which is approximately nine weeks long.
