March 16, 2017 
 
 
The School Year Calendar mandates that school sessions begin for all students on Thursday, September 7, 
2017 and ends on Tuesday, June 26, 2018. It reflects that on Wednesday, September 6, 2017, Tuesday, 
November 7, 2017, and Thursday, June 7, 2018, students in all five boroughs will not be in attendance; schools 
in all five boroughs will be scheduled for a Chancellor’s Conference Day for staff development related to the 
implementation of  high  learning  standards and assessments. The  calendar  must  be adhered  to without 
exception,  unless  notifications  of  subsequent  changes  are  received  pursuant  to  collective  bargaining 
agreements or for other reasons, provided these other reasons are not inconsistent with collective bargaining 
or legal obligations.
