Where Do These Spring Break 2027 Dates Come From?
Every date comes from the 2026-27 calendar each district published on its own website, the same file linked on its district page; the latest check was October 15, 2026. A break counts as spring break when it starts in March or April and the calendar calls it a spring or Easter break, or it runs three weekdays or more; where a calendar has more than one, we use the longest. Weekday counts are our own arithmetic from those dates. One official calendar per state is linked below, and how we read and check every calendar is on the About page.
