Hey LAUSD Parents,
It’s bigger than a pop quiz! This survey will help decide the fate of our school calendar (First Day of School, Last Day of School, Holiday Breaks) for next fall and through 2019!
Your voice counts – please participate in the survey.
Online survey available NOW through Dec 6th.
Five little questions with big implications.
Here’s your test prep:
2016-19 LAUSD Instructional Calendar Survey Questions
Question 1: In your opinion, the school year should start:
- Early August
- Mid-August
- Late August
- After Labor Day
- It does not matter to me.
Question 2: The winter break should be:
- Two weeks
- Three weeks
- It does not matter to me.
Question 3: The District should explore a different, “modified early August” calendar. This option provides a four-week intervention during a shortened summer break. In addition, the winter break would be extended by four weeks to provide interventions. The winter break would last about seven weeks.

Question 4: It is important that both elementary and secondary schools follow the same calendar.

Please note: “Survey opinions will inform Los Angeles Board of Education members when voting to approve the calendar. Their decision will cover the next three years.” It will still come down to the School Board vote.
