Summer Break Timing

This may sound odd, but when do most high schools in the U.S. finish their academic year and start their summer break? I'm trying to plan a summer job.

6 months ago

In the U.S., most high schools typically conclude their academic year in late May to early June, and summer break usually extends until late August or early September. However, this can vary by region and specific school districts. For example, in some southern states, school might end in mid-May and resume in early August. Generally speaking, starting your summer job plan from early June should align well with school schedules. Remember to take into account any additional commitments you might have at the end of the school year, such as exams or graduations. And, of course, it's always best to check your specific school's calendar for the exact dates.
