At the November 8 Board business meeting, the District approved proposed changes to the previously adopted 2023-2024 Traditional and Year-Round Academic Calendars per Ohio Revised Code Section 3313.48 (B) due to the Total Eclipse that will occur on April 8, 2024.

Specifically:

• Traditional Calendar: The revision to the Traditional Academic Calendar moves the April 24, 2024, Professional Development Day to Monday, April 8, 2024, as a remote Professional Development Day; there will be no classes. 

• Year-Round Calendar: The revision to the Year-Round Academic Calendar makes Monday, April 15, 2024, an intersession day on the year-round academic calendar. There will be no classes.

* Please note: no other dates on the Traditional school year calendar or Woodcrest’s year-round schedule are impacted.

Per Ohio law, there must be a 30-day period for public comment before the Board of Education can officially approve the calendars. Columbus City Schools community members can submit comments or feedback via our Academic Calendars Survey or email to engage@columbus.k12.oh.us.

Approval of the Academic Calendar proposals will be placed on the agenda for an upcoming Board of Education business meeting.

The District’s Academic Calendars are created in collaboration with the Columbus Education Association (CEA) and in consultation with principals and district administrators.
