What the district notes

  • Oct. 12, Feb. 12 and April 5 are weather makeup days. Students have no school on them unless the district needs a day to make up for a weather closure, so watch for district announcements after any closing.
  • The calendar lists spring break as March 26 to April 5. April 5 is also a professional development day and a weather makeup day, so students return Tuesday, April 6, unless that day is needed for makeup.
  • Early release days (Aug. 26, Sept. 23, Oct. 28, Feb. 3 and March 3) and student half days (Dec. 18, May 24 and May 25) are printed without dismissal times. Check your school's schedule.
  • Interim reports: Sept. 9, Nov. 17, Feb. 8 and April 20. Report cards: Oct. 21, Jan. 6, March 17 and May 28.
  • Graduation: Airport High School on May 25 and Brookland-Cayce High School on May 26.
  • Lexington Two runs a modified year-round calendar under South Carolina law (Section 59-1-425), which is why school starts in early August and ends in late May.

How we checked these dates

We read every date off the district's own calendar twice: once from the PDF's text and once from the image, cell by cell against its legend. Then we checked each one against the Spanish edition of the calendar (page 2 of the PDF) and the Lexington Two School Year Calendars page.

Every weekday on this page matches its date. If the district changes its calendar, its page is the final word.
