My kids last day was the Thursday before Memorial Day. They go back on the 6th of August. Also a Thursday; this has always been awkward. 1 day short of 10 weeks.

I noticed the school’s out drop in morning traffic immediately on Monday May 18 after the local colleges’ semesters ended. Since then public schools have also ended. I ❤️ summer commute (less) traffic!

There are big difference among the areas. I think NYC has the latest school year. We start after Labor Day. Our last day of school this year is June 26, and that's typical.

Our schools were out 21 May and start back up 12 August. Morning traffic is much lighter in our small town.
