About Hazleton Area School District

Hazleton Area students begin Tuesday, September 8, 2026. The board-approved calendar lists 178 student days and a Thursday, June 10, 2027 finish. The fourth quarter ends June 11, one day after the last student day; that quarter-ending date does not add another day of classes. Graduation is also listed June 10, without a ceremony time or location.

Thanksgiving break runs November 26–30, following early dismissal November 25. Winter break continues from December 24 through January 3, with students returning January 4. The two January Act 80 days fall together on January 28–29. In March, the Act 80 closure on March 25 leads into the March 26–29 spring break, so the next scheduled school day is March 30.

Early dismissal is listed November 25, December 23 and June 8–10. Pickup times differ: 10:30 a.m. for the Academy of Sciences (STEM), 10:45 a.m. for the High School and Career Center, 11:15 a.m. for middle schools and noon for elementary schools. State testing dates are windows; each school assigns students their individual sessions.
