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: Jan 5 and Mar 15, 2027 are listed as "Professional Development / Weather Day / Student Holiday": no school for students unless used as inclement weather make-up days. Oct 12 is Professional Development / Student Holiday. Dec 16 (last day of first semester) is early release for elementary and secondary; May 26-27, 2027 are early release for high school only (May 27 is the last day). Feb 15, 2027 is printed in red (holiday) but not shaded District Closed and is not in the key-dates list, so it is a school day. The document does not say whether the calendar is board-approved.
