MCPS released three proposed calendar options in a memo last week.

Labor Day falls on Monday, September 5th, in fall 2022.

All calendar options must follow state law. The parameters for mandatory closures can be seen below:

• Tuesday, November 8, 2022: Election Day

• Thursday/Friday, November 24th and 25th:l, 2022: Thanksgiving and the day after

• Saturday, December 24th, 2022 through Sunday January 1st, 2023 (Christmas Eve through New Year’s Day)

• Monday, January 16th, 2023: Martin Luther King, Jr. Day

• Monday, February 20th, 2023: Presidents’ Day

• Friday, April 7th, 2023: Friday before Easter

• Monday, April 10th, 2023: Monday after Easter

• Monday, May 29th, 2023: Memorial Day

All three scenarios below include:

• Full length Spring Break (six total non-instructional days, one full week plus the Monday after Easter; and two weekends).

• Contingency Days (all scenarios demonstrate the possibility of modifying the calendar to make up instruction during the year)

• Professional Days (all scenarios return to the previous practice of scheduling a full non-instructional day for professional development and grading and planning time at the end of each quarter.

The three proposed calendars can be seen below:
