Note: Read via Web Archive capture of May 14, 2026, which is older than 60 days: ggusd.us and its school subdomains do not respond from this network, and no later capture of the page exists. A capture of the district Calendars page from Aug. 11, 2026 still links 'School Year Calendar' to this page. Every date was confirmed on Sept. 26, 2026 against the live public Google Calendar of Garden Park Elementary (district ggusd.net calendar embedded on gardenpark.ggusd.us), whose 2026-27 no-school entries were last updated Aug. 13, 2026: first day Aug. 10, Labor Day, Non-Student Days Oct. 30 and Jan. 4, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Nov. 23-27, Winter Recess Dec. 21-Jan. 1, MLK Day, Lincoln Holiday Feb. 12, Presidents Day Feb. 15, Spring Recess Mar. 15-19 and last day May 25. The page is a date table (no PDF) and does not say whether the calendar is board approved. Non-student Days (Oct. 30 and Jan. 4) are no-school days for students; students return from Winter Recess on Jan. 5. Lincoln's Birthday (Feb. 12) and Presidents Day (Feb. 15) make a four-day weekend. The table lists no early release days and does not state a number of student days. Memorial Day (May 31) falls after the last day.
