The US Supreme Court Term runs from the first Monday in October until the first Monday in October of the following year, so they meet once a year, all year.

In the early days of the Court, when the justices had to "ride circuit" and adjudicated few cases at the Supreme Court level, the Court met twice per year. According to the Judiciary Act of 1789, the Court originally convened in February and August.
