Oak Park Schools Begin Classes Monday

Oak Park Schools lists Monday, August 24, 2026, as the first day of classes for all K-12 students. The district calendar identifies the date as First Day of School, following staff opening day on August 17. Families should check their individual school's information and district calendars for school-specific arrival, transportation, meal and program details, since the district announcement does not provide one systemwide start time. The first-day listing applies across the district's K-12 schools.
