No. The University Interscholastic League (UIL) sets the start date for football practices for all districts. Band can start whenever the band director wishes, usually determined by the date of the first football game (which is also regulated by UIL and not affected by school start date.). Currently, Volleyball and Football practices start in early August. UIL has not yet made any provisions to adjust this schedule in light of the later August start date mandated by the Legislature (see question # 1 above).
