Note: There is 1 additional week between Fall 2022 and Spring 2023 (4 weeks instead of 3) because every 5-6 years an extra week occurs in the calendar. We start spring 1 week later in this case for Spring 2023 so that there will continue to be only 2 weeks between end of summer B & D sessions and beginning of Fall 2023.
