Madera Unified School District in 2026-2027 opens on the earlier side of the school-year cycle on Aug 7, 2026 and runs into the first week of June on Jun 4, 2027. The biggest no-school windows are Thanksgiving Break (Nov 23-27, 2026), Winter Break (Dec 21, 2026 - Jan 11, 2027), and Spring Break (Mar 22-26, 2027). Spring Break is a March break, so families planning spring travel should look earlier in the semester.
Read as a household calendar, the year mainly means that the early start can affect summer camp, childcare, and back-to-school travel timing, the early-June finish keeps the year close to the standard late-spring wrap-up pattern, Thanksgiving is shown as a full-week break, and winter break is one of the longest no-school stretches on the calendar. Those points are worth a quick review before families set camp, trip, or pickup plans.
The dates outside the big recesses mostly come from SAP Day and Graduate Profile. This calendar also calls out district-specific closures such as Board-Declared Holiday and Board Declared Holiday. The smaller schedule details worth a closer look include named schedule items such as SAP Day and Graduate Profile.
The dates here are hand-reviewed from district calendar materials by CA School Calendar; check the official district calendar page if the district posts a late revision.
The published calendar calls out Board-Declared Holiday and Board Declared Holiday in addition to the standard statewide holidays.
For the 2026-2027 school year, Spring Break runs Mar 22-26, 2027 and arrives before the end of March.
The first day of school for Madera Unified School District in 2026-2027 is Aug 7, 2026, placing the calendar on the early side of the usual August opening window.

Thanksgiving Break runs from Nov 23-27, 2026, giving families the full holiday week off.
