I grew up in the Midwest and in my [smallish] high school we went from mid-late August to the end of May. We didn't have a full week off for Spring Break, instead had the last Friday in February off for the State Wrestling tournament and then a 4-day weekend for Easter.
(I grew up in a rural, extremely conservative Christian community; I think there are about 12 churches for my town of 4,000.)
Where I live now school still runs from mid-late August until late May/early June. The schools do have a week-long Spring break and I believe it tends to be either late March or early April.
