The San Francisco Unified School District (SFUSD) holiday calendar for 2026-27 lists fall recess Monday, Nov. 23 to Friday, Nov. 27, 2026, winter recess Dec. 21, 2026 to Jan. 1, 2027, and spring recess March 26 to April 2, 2027, in its “School Holiday Calendar 2026 - 2027” PDF. The last day of school is Wednesday, June 2, 2027. Wednesday, Nov. 11 (Veterans Day) is the next day off, and fall recess covers the whole Monday-to-Friday week.

The district’s calendars page, last updated Sept. 10, 2026, links the PDF. The PDF prints no date of its own. Some third-party calendar sites list different spring dates; this story uses the district’s PDF.

When are the SFUSD recesses in 2026-27?

The “weekdays off” and “school weekdays before” columns are our count from the PDF dates. “School weekdays before” counts Monday-to-Friday days between the previous break and this one, minus the one-day holidays on the PDF, starting from Monday, Nov. 9 for fall recess.

Fall recessMon., Nov. 23 to Fri., Nov. 27, 202659 (from Mon., Nov. 9, with Nov. 11 off)

Last day of schoolWed., June 2, 2027-42 (April 5 to June 2, with Memorial Day off)

The calendar prints no return dates. By our reading, classes resume Monday, Nov. 30, Monday, Jan. 4, 2027 and Monday, April 5. The PDF also marks early education programs closed Nov. 25-27 and during winter recess. For how other districts schedule the week, see our Thanksgiving break 2026 roundup.

How long is SFUSD winter break in 2026?

Winter recess is Dec. 21, 2026 to Jan. 1, 2027, ten weekdays. With the weekends on both sides, that is 16 days in a row without classes, from Saturday, Dec. 19 to Sunday, Jan. 3, by our count. Our winter break 2026 roundup compares other districts.

When is SFUSD spring break in 2027?

Spring recess starts Friday, March 26 and ends Friday, April 2, 2027. Farmworkers Day, Wednesday, March 31, falls inside it, so it adds no extra day off. With the weekends, the break runs 10 days in a row, Friday, March 26 to Sunday, April 4, by our count.

Which SFUSD days are off in 2026-27?

Every date the PDF prints, with weekdays from our calendar check.

The holiday calendar lists no professional development or minimum days. It also shows no mid-winter break.

Does SFUSD have a February break in 2027?

The PDF has two February entries: the Lunar New Year observance on Friday, Feb. 5 and Presidents’ Day on Monday, Feb. 15, 2027. Each is a single day off, so there is no February recess week. Fill in the dates on our printable school-year calendar page or the November 2026 calendar, and compare with Los Angeles Unified’s 2026-27 breaks.
