Fall 2023 for Middle School (6–8)
The Fall 2023 semester runs from August 28, 2023 through December 15, 2023 as part of the 2023-2024 Academic Year school year. For sixth- through eighth-grade students, families, and middle-school staff, this semester is anchored by the federal holidays observed in the fall term and the Middle School-specific milestones layered on top of the OPM federal calendar.
Middle school calendars on PrintCalendars place athletic seasons alongside academic milestones so families can plan around game nights, away tournaments, and the spring testing crunch.

Printing tips for letter-size paper
Print the months above in portrait orientation on US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) paper at 100% scale for the standard printable layout, or switch each month to landscape when you need wider day cells for written notes. The Middle School milestones listed here are layered onto the federal calendar — they do not replace it, so a single printed sheet works across siblings in different grade bands.
