School Board Unanimously Adopts Pre-Labor Day Calendar

The Loudoun County School Board unanimously adopted a calendar that will open school before Labor Day for the 2011-2012 school year at its Tuesday, October 12th, meeting. The earlier starting time will allow school to close on June 8, 2012, eight days earlier than this school year.

The earlier opening date was made possible because Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) now qualifies for a weather waiver under the Virginia law that requires schools open after Labor Day.

Following is the 2011-2012 student calendar:
