School clerks will return to campuses on Aug. 9, while teachers will begin preparations for the year with Teachers Institute Days beginning on Aug. 14, according to the CPS calendar.
Students and faculty will have Labor Day off on Sept. 4, according to the calendar, and students will also get Sept. 22 off for a professional development day for teachers and faculty.
