Wake County School Calendar

The 2005 - 2006 Wake County School Calendar does not make a lot of sense if you have anything to do with running a summer camp or program that involves the employment of College aged students. The traditional school year will begin August 25, 2005. In most cases, this is at least one week if not two weeks later than students report to their college campuses. This will be a problem for the camps and programs that rely so heavily on the college age student to work in their program.

Conversely, the last day of the school year will be on June 9,2006. Once again this is not in line with college dismissal dates. Most universities hold graduation mid May. Here you will have your student working population out of school waiting for the students to fill the programs they staff. The North Carolina legislature did not fully think this one out.
