About Reading School District
Reading students start Monday, August 24, 2026. The planned last day is Thursday, June 3, 2027, with an early dismissal. Five other shortened days fall on October 30, December 22, January 15, May 7 and May 28. The PDF does not give dismissal times, so check your school’s pickup and bus schedule for each of these dates.
Thanksgiving week is scheduled without student classes: November 23–25 are Act 80 days, November 26–27 are holidays, and November 30 is Thanksgiving recess. The Act 80 days and November 30 are also possible snow make-ups. Winter time off begins with a student closure on December 23, followed by holidays and recess through January 1. Classes are scheduled to resume January 4.
February conferences begin the afternoon of February 10 and continue through February 12. Only February 11–12 are marked as full student closures. Spring time off runs March 22–29 under the published schedule, but March 22–24 and March 29 may become make-up days; March 25–26 are Easter holidays. The district may also add days after June 3 if needed. Confirm those dates before booking travel.
