Note: Approved by the Board of Trustees on January 22, 2026 as the traditional base school calendar for 2027-28 (consent agenda item 9.04; the attached calendar is titled '2027-2028 DRAFT TRADITIONAL CALENDAR'). The district's calendar page does not post a final 2027-28 calendar yet (checked Sep 26, 2026). Followed by most Dallas ISD schools; ADSY campuses use the separate ADSY calendar. The calendar names only the Fall Break; Nov 22-26, Dec 20-Jan 3, Mar 13-17 and Apr 14-17 are marked as student/staff holidays. Professional development days (Oct 11, Nov 2, Jan 4) are student holidays; students return Jan 5. Dec 17 and May 25 (last day) are early release days for all students; secondary students also release early Dec 15-16 and May 23-24. March 31 and April 24 are inclement weather days, set aside to make up days lost to bad weather: students have school on them only if they are needed. The calendar itself does not say this, but the district closed schools on its unused inclement weather make-up days in 2022 and 2026 ('days off for students'), and without them the calendar has 175 student days, the minimum the Board's ADSY item cites. Memorial Day (May 29) and June 19 are district holidays after the last day of school.
