The Round Rock ISD calendar committee made up of district and campus staff and parents from each learning community, has created two draft academic calendar options for the 2025-2026 school year.
Before presenting the calendar committee’s recommendation to the Board of Trustees, the district is surveying families, staff, and students to gather their preferences between Draft 1 and Draft 2 of the proposed academic calendar. The survey closes on Wednesday, Aug 28. One response per person is recorded.
The Board of Trustees will review the calendar committee’s recommendations and the community’s feedback before deciding which draft of the academic calendar to adopt.
Survey participants can complete the survey in English, Spanish, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Russian, Telugu, or Hindi.
