We fetch this document again every day and compare it with the version we verified; if the district changes it, the dates here are read again.

Note: The Board of Trustees approved the 2026-27 District Calendar (Option A) 7-0 on the consent agenda of its Dec. 16, 2025 meeting (board minutes); the district's Calendars page links this file (26-27OptionA.pdf, posted April 2026) as the 2026-2027 School Calendar, and the same page's older 'DRAFT A' grid has the same dates. Sept. 18, Dec. 18, Jan. 4-6 and March 26 are professional learning/work days with no school for students; Oct. 9 is a parent-teacher conference day and a student holiday. Nov. 23 and March 15 are SDCE days (student holidays) at the start of Thanksgiving Break and Spring Break. Feb. 12 (Bad Weather Makeup Day #1) and March 26 (#2) are no-school days unless they are needed to make up days lost to bad weather. Feb. 15 (Presidents' Day) is printed as a Student & Teacher Holiday. The district's online events calendar lists the same no-school days, and the separate A/B day calendar has the same dates. No student day count is printed. Memorial Day (May 31) falls after the last day of school.
