Month by month
Highlighted dates follow the published calendar; grouped or inferred entries are labelled. Today is determined in Eastern Time (America/New_York).
The 2027–2028 calendar moves the student opening to August 18, 2027 and places the tentative finish on May 30, 2028. Monthly figures add up to 172 regular student days. In-year in-service/PTC dates begin August 27 and continue at intervals through May 12. The key keeps room for student activities and interventions on these days; schools provide participation instructions.
November 24–29 is Thanksgiving holiday, with students scheduled back November 30. Winter holiday is a single December 20–31 range. January 1–2 falls on the weekend, so the next scheduled school day is Monday, January 3. Easter holiday comes later this year, April 14–17, and does not create a March vacation week. The April 7 in-service/PTC date remains a separate pause.
May has several distinct milestones. May 12 is an in-service/PTC date, and CMS/CASHS graduation is May 26; its blue triangle matches the half-day dismissal key. After Memorial Day on May 29, students are scheduled back May 30 for a tentative final half day and fourth marking-period end. Snow dates May 31 and June 1–2 may alter that finish. PSSA weeks are dated, but Keystone dates and exact ACCESS appointments are still TBD.
Regular student days (monthly sum): 172 days. The monthly Student Days figures sum to 172: 9 + 20 + 19 + 16 + 12 + 19 + 18 + 22 + 17 + 20 + 0. In-service/PTC dates are outside this regular-class count, even though the legend allows student activities/interventions on those dates. No separate annual total is printed.
