2023-2024 School Calendar And Hours

We want to say thank you to our families and educators for partnering with Texas Leadership Public Schools. We know that in the State of Texas, Public Charter Schools have consistently been at the forefront of innovation. We continue that forward-thinking reputation by implementing a board-approved 4.5 day school week calendar.

Your voice, over the past year, has been a vital part of decision-making regarding

our 23-24 school year calendar for our cities in

San Angelo, Abilene, Midland, Arlington and Cedar Hill.

The District’s desired outcome of this calendar includes greater focus on academic time for our students, support for our Educators, student growth, improved attendance, and enhanced extracurricular activities.

Our desire, on this webpage, is to communicate what this year will hold and hopefully help answer some of your questions. As always, we want to hear from you! Feel free to email us at [email protected]
