How many school days are in Florida?

This free online school year calculator will create an interactive school calendar template based on the dates of the first and last day of class.

You can set the school day calculator to exclude US federal holidays (plus Good Friday) and related common breaks, and then adjust the weekdays to exclude from the number of school days remaining based on the "no school" dates in your school's calendar.

Then, once you have excluded all days based on your custom "no school" days, you can generate a printer-friendly school countdown calendar or count-up calendar (for homeschooling) that will list the number of days left and/or class-day-number in each calendar day cell. So instead of having to re-create the calendar to see how many days you have left until the last day of school, you can look up the current date on the printed calendar!

Finally, you can name and save the school countdown calendar under the "Data" tab. That way, when you select the saved calendar on your next visit, it will automatically update the days, weeks, and months left, and either how many days until school starts or how many days since school started, whichever applies.

The number of months, weeks, days, and hours in a typical school year.

How Many Days Are In a School Year?

While the number varies between states and school districts, the average number of school days in a year in the US is 180 days. At 6 hours per school day, this translates to an average of 1,080 instructional hours per school year.

If would like a more accurate measure of the number of school days in a year, you can look up your state on National Center for Educational Statistics (NCES) table, entitled Number of instructional days and hours in the school year, by state.

How Many Weeks Are In a School Year?

Based on the 180 average number of school days per school year, and roughly 20 no-school days (200 total weekdays), there are roughly 40 weeks per school year (200 weekdays ÷ 5 days per week = 40 weeks).

How Many Months Are In a School Year?

Based on 40-weeks per school year in the US, and each month containing an average of 4.35 weeks, the average number of months in a school year would be 9.2 (40 weeks ÷ 4.35 weeks per month = 9.2 months).
