How to use this source tracker
State pages are a starting point for planning, but the final school calendar is often approved by a local school board. Start with the source link, then check your district for teacher workdays, early release days, emergency make-up days, and local holidays.
For large states, a statewide calendar reference may not match a major district such as New York City, Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami-Dade, Houston, or Dallas. Use the notes below to decide when district verification is especially important.
