Plan more of your school calendar

Choose a Sunday or Monday week start and an optional hourly grid in Class Calendar. The grid fits wide screens, keeps working hours visible above events, and expands all-day cards to fit their text. Period time editing is smoother across Calendar, Scheduler, and Tracker.
