Complete month-by-month calendar for Coachella Valley Public Schools. Every day is color-coded so you can see school days, holidays, and breaks at a glance.
Coachella Valley Unified School District in 2026-2027 starts later than many August-opening districts on Aug 19, 2026 and extends deeper into June than many nearby calendars on Jun 9, 2027. The biggest no-school windows are Thanksgiving Break (Nov 23-27, 2026), Winter Break Recess (Dec 21-31, 2026), and Spring Break Recess (Mar 22, 2027 - Apr 2, 2027). Spring Break comes earlier than the April recess pattern some districts use.
Read as a household calendar, the year mainly means that the later start leaves a longer August planning window before classes resume, the later June finish can shorten the early-summer planning window, and Thanksgiving is shown as a full-week break. It is worth checking these points before locking in camps, travel, or pickup plans.
Beyond the headline breaks, the schedule also includes conference-related minimum days and minimum days. The calendar notes also mark finals and term-ending checkpoints around the grading periods. This calendar also calls out district-specific closures such as Good Friday Holiday. Beyond the three headline breaks, the details to scan include named schedule items such as parent conference day (Elementary only) (Elementary Schools) and Minimum Day (Elementary only).
CA School Calendar reviews the district's published calendar materials by hand, but the official district calendar page remains the final place to confirm late updates.
The published calendar calls out Good Friday Holiday in addition to the standard statewide holidays.
For the 2026-2027 school year, Spring Break runs Mar 22, 2027 - Apr 2, 2027 and arrives before the end of March.
The first day of school for Coachella Valley Unified School District in 2026-2027 is Aug 19, 2026, so the year opens later than many August-start calendars.
Coachella Valley Unified School District ends the 2026-2027 school year on Jun 9, 2027, giving families a later June finish than the usual May-ending pattern.
Thanksgiving Break runs from Nov 23-27, 2026, giving families the full holiday week off.
