Classroom calendar printables for teachers

What to print for a classroom

Three sheets cover most rooms: one year overview for the wall, one month sheet that changes each month, and a weekly sheet for routines. All of them are free to print and photocopy for your class.

• The year on one page: the 2026-2027 school year calendar runs August to July. Highlight breaks, report-card dates and testing windows from your district's calendar.
• The current month, large: a monthly sheet in the Minimal design prints clean on a copier and leaves the boxes free for writing. Use the Planner design if you want a notes column for the week's objectives.
• The week: the weekly planner has a habit tracker layout that works as a class jobs or reading log.

Weekdays in each month of 2026-2027

Use this table to pace a unit or split a reading list. It counts Monday to Friday in each month and lists the US federal holidays that fall in it. It does not know your district's breaks, teacher work days or weather days, so subtract those to get instructional days.

August to July has 260 weekdays in all. A holiday that falls on a Saturday or Sunday is usually observed on the nearest weekday; your district's calendar has the day schools close.

Calendar time with younger students

• Print the kids blank calendar and let students write the month name, the weekday letters and the numbers themselves. Writing the grid teaches the pattern better than reading a finished one.
• Circle today, cross off yesterday, and count on to the next event: "How many days until the field trip?" The days-until pages give the answer for holidays.
• Keep the same layout all year. Switching between Sunday-start and Monday-start sheets confuses children who are still learning the order of the days; the Monday or Sunday start guide explains the choice.

Sheets to send home

A month sheet with test dates, spirit days and early dismissals filled in is the handout families keep on the fridge. Fill in one copy by hand or type on the PNG, then photocopy. The Minimal design uses the least toner. For families who read dates day-first, write the month name in words on anything you add.

Holidays and observances

The Holidays design prints US holidays in the date boxes. The full list with dates is on the US holidays page, with separate lists for the United Kingdom and Canada. School closures are decided by each district, so check its calendar before you mark a day off.

Printing a class set

Print one copy from the PDF at actual size, check that the grid is not clipped, then photocopy it. Copying a master is cheaper per page than printing thirty originals on an inkjet. The print guide covers paper size and scaling.
