Month by month
Highlighted dates follow the published calendar; grouped or inferred entries are labelled. Today is determined in Eastern Time (America/New_York).
Council Rock opens August 31, 2026 for grades K–6, 7 and 9. All students report September 1, so families with children in different grades may have different first-day plans. The approved calendar lists 180 student days and schedules the last student day for June 10, 2027, with K–12 early dismissal. June 11 is a make-up day only if needed.
Four shortened days apply to K–8: October 8, November 23–24 and April 23. High schools are not included in those early dismissal entries. January 22 and the June 10 last student day apply to K–12. November conferences follow separate elementary and middle school appointment schedules, and November 25 has no student classes, with morning conferences for K–8.
Thanksgiving closures are November 26–27, with students scheduled back November 30. Winter time off runs December 24 through January 1; all schools reopen January 4. Spring time off is continuous March 22–26, combining two PD/exchange days, two school closures and Good Friday. Classes are scheduled to resume March 29. May 18 is only a tentative election-day closure, and the June 9 graduation footnote is also tentative. Confirm both before making plans.
