About this file
This document is an Academic Calendar for the 2022-2023 academic year at the Governor's School for Science and Mathematics (GSSM), a South Carolina state institution. The calendar provides scheduling information for faculty and staff across both the fall and spring semesters, including residential student move-in dates, orientation periods, class schedules, assessment deadlines, and examination windows. Key dates include fall semester classes beginning August 15-17, 2022, with the semester concluding December 16, 2022, followed by an interim session in January 2023 and spring semester classes running from January 23 through May 17, 2023. The calendar identifies scheduled long weekends, parents' days, preview days for prospective students, standardized testing dates (SAT, ACT, PSAT), and all-school meetings designated for Tuesdays at 4:00-5:00 p.m. or Wednesdays at 1:00-2:00 p.m. Faculty contract dates are specified, with 10-month faculty contracts beginning August 4 and concluding June 1, 2023.
The calendar also outlines administrative deadlines pertinent to dining services and residential operations, including student move-in and departure dates that directly impact food service requirements. Residential students return by 7:00 p.m. on specified dates, including August 14-15 for fall semester, January 3 for spring semester return, and January 23 for spring semester commencement. The document indicates scheduled breaks including Thanksgiving holidays (November 18-27, 2023) and spring break (April 7-16, 2023), during which reduced or modified dining services would likely be required. The calendar serves as the operational framework for GSSM's residential and academic programming, with direct implications for contracted dining service providers regarding staffing, meal preparation volumes, and service scheduling throughout the academic year.
