The 2023-2024 AISD Traditional ‘Reimagined’ School Year Calendar and ADSY Calendar Are Now Available!

Disponible en: Español

Aldine ISD’s instructional calendars for the 2023-2024 school year are now set. What is new? The district has reimagined the traditional calendar for students and teachers to create a more balanced approach with fall and spring mid-term breaks.

The start date for most students and schools on the reimagined traditional calendar is Thursday, August 10, 2023. The last day of school will be Thursday, May 30, 2024.

For students attending the district’s four schools on the Additional School Days School Year (ADSY) calendar — Vines Primary, Ermel Elementary, Harris Elementary, and Smith Elementary — the first day of instruction will be Thursday, July 13, 2023. The last day of school will be Wednesday, June 14, 2024.

The first mid-term break will be in October, with the second in February. Thanksgiving will be a whole week for all AISD students.

The Aldine ISD Board approved the calendar recommendations for the 2023-2024 instructional calendars during its regularly scheduled meeting on Tuesday, January 24.

The district received input from teachers, parents, community members, school administrators, and support staff through an online survey on the two proposed calendars.

2 Different Aldine ISD School Year Calendars

Most campuses follow the traditional, now reimagined, school year calendar. Vines Primary, Ermel Elementary, Harris Elementary and Smith Elementary fall under the Additional Days School Year (ADSY) calendar.

The different calendars are part of Aldine’s commitment to providing choices and opportunities to students and families.

The ADSY calendar demonstrates the possibilities of reimagining teaching by accelerating learning and strengthening whole-child support. ADSY allows for increased achievement and growth opportunities for learners. The ADSY model incorporates more recess and ‘brain’ breaks, collaboration, student projects, staff professional development, and increased collaboration between families and schools.
