First Day of School 2026
The first day of school on the Enfield Public Schools Calendar is Thursday, August 27, 2026. Teachers report earlier, starting August 25. It is the date the last summer trip and the last camp week have to end by, and nonrefundable fares booked around a guessed date are the ones that hurt.
Because classes begin on a Thursday, the opening week is only 2 days long. The first full week of school starts Monday, August 31.
