2024 and 2025 School Year Calendar for Knox County

The 2024-2025 school calendar for Knox County Schools has been released, and there are some important changes to be aware of. The most significant change is that the first day of school will be moved to August 9th, 2024, which is two weeks earlier than the previous year. This change was made in order to align with the start dates of other school districts in the state and to provide more time for teachers to prepare for the school year.

Another change to the calendar is that there will be no school on Labor Day, September 2nd, 2024. This is a change from the previous year, when Labor Day was a school holiday. The reason for this change is that Labor Day falls on a Monday in 2024, and the district has decided to use that day as a teacher workday.

The last major change to the calendar is that the last day of school will be moved to May 23rd, 2025, which is one week earlier than the previous year. This change was made in order to give students more time to prepare for their end-of-year exams and to allow for more time for teachers to wrap up the school year.

In addition to these changes, there are also a few minor changes to the calendar, such as the addition of a few teacher workdays and the removal of a few holidays. Parents and students are encouraged to review the full calendar carefully and make note of any changes that may affect them.
