Back To (In-Person, Full Day) School: Chicago Public School Calendar for 2021-22
If you've got a child in public school, you live by the school calendar, and after a year of fits and starts, delays, and COVID-induced quarantines and closures, parents are wondering what this school year will bring. As back-to-school looms, it's looking like students will return to school in semi-normal fashion (on August 30), with in-person learning taking place on campuses across the city five days a week. The Chicago Public School Calendar for the 2021-2022 school year is below, and you'll want to bookmark it now for reference—and to help with planning family vacations and school break camp coverage.
Read on for all the dates and details of the current 2020-21 school year plan.

Chicago Public Schools Return to In-Person Learning
As of August 1, Chicago Public Schools plans to allow all students to return to in-person learning in the fall. However, families also have the option to choose remote learning and attend class from home. Check the reopening guide for details on in-person classes attendance, remote learning, mask guidance, testing, and health screenings. The guidance from the CDC has changed quite recently in response to the spread of the Delta variant, so keep a close eye on requirements and guidelines for students from CPC as the first day of school approaches.
Here are all of the dates you can count on your kiddos being out of school during the 2021-2022 school year.
