Month by month
Highlighted dates follow the published calendar; grouped or inferred entries are labelled. Today is determined in Eastern Time (America/New_York).
Baker County students start on Friday, July 31, after an open house the previous evening. The calendar has five early dismissals, all at 12 p.m.: October 23, November 20, December 18, April 2 and May 21. Three of those Fridays lead into weeklong holidays, while December 18 starts the longer winter time off. Families who use after-school care will need an earlier pickup plan on each of those dates. Parent conferences are October 8 and March 18, from 4 to 6 p.m.; neither is listed as an early-release day.
The January and February returns deserve a separate reminder. Winter break ends January 1, but January 4 is a professional learning day, so students return January 5. In February, the Presidents Day holiday is followed by two professional learning days, keeping students out February 15–17 before the February 18 return. Spring break is April 5–9, with students back April 12. The regular year closes May 21, which also has graduation and the fourth-quarter ending. The June summer quarter appears separately on the district calendar and is not part of that July-to-May schedule.
