According to the board-approved instructional calendar for the 2023-2024 academic year, the first day of school will be Wednesday, August 16, 2023 and the last day of instruction will be Friday, May 24, 2024. Ending the year in May allows staff and students to meet commitments related to summer school, post-secondary summer studies, and other summer programs which begin in early June.

Please note, TEA will release its application for Professional Development waivers this spring. Lake Travis ISD will request January 5, February 15, and February 16, 2024 to be used as Professional Development for staff (no school for students). The District will also seek Professional Development for staff (early release for students) on September 27 and November 8, 2023, as well as on February 28 and March 15, 2024. Additionally, bad weather minutes have been "banked" and are included in the board-approved calendar.

UPDATE!  In an effort to realign Spring Break 2024 with Austin Community College and other Central Texas school districts, the Lake Travis school board voted during its April 5 workshop to amend the 2023-2024 instructional calendar. As a result, Spring Break will be observed a week earlier than indicated on the calendar initially approved by the board in January 2023, from March 18-22 to March 11-15, 2024. No other changes were made to the 2023-2024 instructional calendar.

Specifically, the amended calendar aligns instructional minutes and supports the academic performance of Lake Travis High School students who are enrolled in Dual Credit credit courses with ACC. Additionally, the amended calendar provides consistency for Lake Travis ISD staff whose children attend schools in neighboring districts.
