The School Operations Annual Calendar – Quick View is a concise, implementation-ready Free Resource designed to help K–12 school and district operations teams understand and plan for the full operational rhythm of a school year.
Built as a one-page planning and alignment tool, this calendar outlines the major seasonal phases of school operations—from summer readiness through year-end closeout—highlighting common behind-the-scenes work and what strong operations look like at each stage. Rather than serving as a task list, this resource supports proactive planning, equitable workload distribution, and shared understanding across operations teams and school leaders.
Designed for use during summer planning, mid-year check-ins, and leadership transitions, this quick-view calendar helps teams move away from reactive reminders and toward predictable, people-centered systems that protect capacity and reduce burnout.
