LEXINGTON COUNTYSCHOOL DISTRICT ONE

2017–2018

All dates are subject to change including test dates. At the time of printing, the South Carolina Department of Education has not released many of the testing dates we would normally include in this calendar, including dates for the ACT Aspire, ACT WorkKeys, End-of-Course Exams and SCPASS tests.

To see the most up-to-date calendar, visit www.lexington1.net/academic-calendar.

By law (Section 59-1-425 of the South Carolina Code of Laws), districts are required to include at least three severe weather makeup days in each year’s academic school calendar. We have included those three days (February 19, March 30, May 25) in this calendar. If the district does not need to use one of these severe weather makeup days, that day becomes a holiday. If the district has to delay the opening of school due to bad weather or other circumstances and that day is a collaborative planning day, the district will cancel all collaborative planning activities for that day.
