Use the data safely

Three checks before changing family plans

1

Match the identity

Confirm the district name and NCES ID, especially when multiple agencies have similar names.

2

Match the calendar

Verify the school year, campus or program scope, and whether the document is adopted or tentative.

3

Check the revision

Record the source URL and checked-on date, then review again before travel, care, or work decisions.

Where is the official Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools calendar?

What does the reported district status mean?

It is the status reported in the NCES 2024-25 directory data, effective on the date shown. It does not establish whether schools are open, closed, or delayed today.

What is the NCES ID for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools?

The NCES local education agency identifier is 3702970. It is the most reliable way to distinguish this district from similarly named agencies.
