Welcome back CCPS!

It's our first week of school for the 2025-26 school year. We're excited to welcome you and 64,000 students back to classes.

  • Grades 1-5, 6 and 9 begin Monday, Aug. 18

  • Grades 7-8, 10-12 begin Tuesday, Aug. 19

  • Prekindergarten and kindergarten students start on different days:

    • Some students attend Aug. 18-19; others attend Aug. 20-21. 

    • Schools assign students to specific days to allow students to become more familiar with their new surroundings in a smaller classroom setting.

    • Starting Aug. 22, all prekindergarten and kindergarten students attend daily.

Make sure to check our calendars page for important dates.

Families can visit the CCPS back-to-school hub for  transportation information, Chromebook details, fee payments, supply lists and more. 

Have a student who is ready to start school? Families can still register their little ones for kindergarten.

We hope you have a great first week and a wonderful school year!
