Fall 2024 for Middle School (6–8)
The Fall 2024 semester runs from August 26, 2024 through December 13, 2024 as part of the 2024-2025 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.
