Editor’s note: CFISD has recently informed us of a change to the calendar, deleting the Feb. 11, 2022 teacher work day.
CYPRESS — The CFISD Board of Trustees approved the calendar committee’s recommendations for the 2021-2022 instructional calendar during its regularly scheduled meeting on Jan. 14, 2021.
State law mandates that instruction for the school year may not begin before the fourth Monday in August. For the 2021-2022 instructional year, the earliest start date is Aug. 23—which will serve as the first day of school.
In the fall semester of 2020, a calendar committee was organized to develop a calendar for the 2021-2022 school year. The committee was made up of district-wide representation, including teachers, parents, community members, campus administrators and support staff. The committee sought public input online while working to construct the calendar using the 75,600 minutes needed to complete a school year required by law.
The committee recommended a calendar to the school board that will conclude the 2021-2022 school year on May 26, 2022.
In its meetings, the committee discussed various components of developing the instructional calendars before arriving at a consensus.
2021-2022 Cy-Fair ISD important dates:
- students begin school on Monday, Aug. 23, 2021;
- Labor Day, Sept. 6, 2021, is a student/staff holiday;
