The 2025-2026 Capistrano Unified School District calendar starts later than many August-opening districts on Aug 19, 2025 and runs into the first week of June on Jun 4, 2026. The biggest family planning windows are Thanksgiving Break (Nov 24-28, 2025), Winter Break (Dec 22, 2025 - Jan 2, 2026), and Spring Break (Apr 6-10, 2026). Spring Break lands later than the March-heavy recess pattern some districts use. Outside those major breaks, families should also plan around staff planning days and standalone no-school dates. The notes also flag conference-related minimum days that can shorten the student week. This calendar also calls out district-specific closures such as Admission Day Observed and Spring Holiday.
