Tulsa Public Schools (TPS) in Oklahoma lists Nov. 23-27, Dec. 21, 2026 to Jan. 1, 2027, and March 15-19, 2027, as no-classes weeks on its 2026-2027 student calendar. Students return Tuesday, Jan. 5, 2027, and the last day of classes is Friday, May 28, 2027. The board approved the 2026-27 calendar at its March 24, 2025, meeting.

The district posts the PDF on its Calendars page. Fall Break, Oct. 14-16, and the Nov. 2-3 Civic Engagement days have passed. The next break is the Thanksgiving week starting Monday, Nov. 23.

What breaks does the TPS calendar list for 2026-27?

The district’s news release says the 2026-2027 year begins Wednesday, Aug. 19, 2026, and ends Friday, May 28, 2027. The calendar prints “Holiday/Break - No Classes” dates. Weekdays off are our count from those dates.

The calendar lists no closure on Nov. 30 or March 22. March 22 is also the first day of the fourth quarter.

When do TPS students return after winter break?

Tuesday, Jan. 5, 2027. Monday, Jan. 4, is listed as a Teacher PD day, and the quarter grid marks Jan. 5 as the first day of the third quarter. Counting the weekdays from Dec. 21 to Jan. 1 plus Jan. 4, that is 11 weekdays without classes.

From Nov. 23 on, that is 25 weekdays without classes. The calendar also prints parent conference days on Oct. 13, 2026, and Jan. 19, 2027, with the note “Please check with your school for exact dates and times”. The district’s page for the approved calendars describes a return to a full week for Fall Break; the PDF prints Oct. 14-16, with Oct. 12 and the Oct. 13 conferences just before it.

Plan the spring week on the March 2027 calendar. The PDF prints no early release days and does not list Veterans Day or Memorial Day among its holidays.

Which TPS weekends run longer in 2027?

Only one is certain from the printed dates. Presidents’ Day, Monday, Feb. 15, and a Teacher PD day on Tuesday, Feb. 16, make a four-day stretch from Saturday, Feb. 13, to Tuesday, Feb. 16, 2027, for students. The Martin L. King Jr. holiday on Monday, Jan. 18, makes a three-day weekend. Jan. 19 is a parent conference day, so check with your school whether it changes anything for your child.

How do the TPS quarters run?

The calendar grid marks the first and last day of each quarter.

QuarterDates
FirstAug. 19 to Fri., Oct. 9, 2026
SecondTue., Oct. 13 to Fri., Dec. 18, 2026
ThirdTue., Jan. 5 to Fri., March 12, 2027
FourthMon., March 22 to Fri., May 28, 2027

Why can the last TPS day of school change?

The PDF marks May 28 with a footnote: “The last day of school includes three weather days. If more or fewer inclement weather days are needed, the last day of school may be adjusted.” In plain terms, the calendar builds three inclement-weather days into the year, and the district says the last day may move earlier or later depending on how many it needs. The calendar does not say which days or how the district decides.

How does the TPS calendar compare with Dallas schools?

Dallas Independent School District (ISD) is the nearest big district in our coverage; its dates are in our Dallas ISD story. Both list Nov. 23-27 and March 15-19. They differ on winter break and the last day.
