When Does School Start in Roswell?

Students return to classrooms on Aug. 13, and the school year ends on May 23, 2013.

Local students are already buying school supplies and catching up on summer reading as the Fulton County School System gears up to kick off its 2012-2013 year Aug. 13.

Though teachers begin going back for planning purposes in early August, students don't officially start until closer to the middle of the month. Their first break will come Sept. 3 for the long Labor Day weekend, followed by a second break Oct. 15 for a teacher workday.
