Baker County School District

• Baker County schools start August 20.*

• Baker County is on a four-day school week. This means that students will only be in class for four days each week, but students will still be required to attend classes for the same amount of time as before. This can be done by scheduling longer days or half-days at different times throughout the day and year. For example, Monday through Thursday could be considered full days — from 7:30 am until 3:30 pm — while Friday and all holidays would count as half days that end around noon.*

• Because Baker County has a two-track schedule (High School/Middle School), the first day of school may only apply to some students depending on their age group. Students who are new arrivals or have missed summer school should check with their individual schools because they may need to attend summer school before being able to enroll.*
