School year always began day after Labor Day and ended first week of June. Now I see kids going back early or mid August. As a kid, I'd prefer more time off in the summer than adding days around holidays in the winter months.
In NY school got out end of June and started day after Labor Day
In Texas last 30 years I’ve been here probably since beginning of organized school school ends in may starts August
Schoo starting in August is horrific.
