Complete month-by-month calendar for Santa Clara Public Schools. Every day is color-coded so you can see school days, holidays, and breaks at a glance.
Santa Clara Unified School District in 2026-2027 opens on the earlier side of the school-year cycle on Aug 10, 2026 and runs into the first week of June on Jun 4, 2027. The main break blocks to plan around are Thanksgiving Break (Nov 23-27, 2026), Winter Break (Dec 21, 2026 - Jan 1, 2027), and Spring Break (Apr 12-16, 2027). Spring Break lands later than the March-heavy recess pattern some districts use.
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. These details can affect childcare coverage, trip timing, and when to recheck school-site announcements.
Most of the no-school time is concentrated in the major break windows rather than scattered across the year.
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.
No. Santa Clara's published calendar uses many generic H markers, so families often need to follow the date pattern rather than rely on a fully written holiday label for each closure.
