Russian students lock in summer holidays dates.
For high schoolers, summertime fun's on the horizon!
Mark your calendars, folks! The Russian Ministry of Education has officially announced the dates for next year's summer vacation. Get ready because it's gonna be a long one! According to reports by RIA Novosti, the break will commence May 26 and will last until August 31.
Now, the details for 9th graders specifically are a bit more nuanced. The final exam schedule determines when they'll start their well-deserved holiday. Don't fret though, we're talking end of May here!
There's a bit of flexibility when it comes to scheduling, too. By law, schools can either follow the federal calendar or create their own, taking into account regional quirks and feedback from educators. So, it's always wise to double-check with your school for the most accurate info.
The academic year usually kicks off September 1 and wraps up in accordance with each school's unique academic plan. Keep that in mind as you bid adieu to last year's books and prepare to soak up some sun!
Start thinking about your summer plans early, high schoolers! With final exams wrapping up education-and-self-development duties by the end of May, you'll have General-news opportunities to immerse yourself in self-growth during the extended summer break, which begins May 26 and lasts until August 31.
