Calendar Notes
District context: Schertz-Cibolo-Universal City Independent School District serves San Antonio Area families, where the district calendar is the practical baseline for school-year planning. For 2026-2027, students are scheduled to start on August 13, 2026 and finish on May 27, 2027. The main family planning blocks are Fall Break (October 9, 2026 - October 12, 2026), Thanksgiving Break (November 23, 2026 - November 27, 2026), Winter Break (December 21, 2026 - January 4, 2027), and Spring Break (March 8, 2027 - March 12, 2027). Parents can use this view for travel windows, shared-custody exchanges, childcare coverage, after-school activities, and comparing district days off with work schedules.
What to watch: Notable local calendar items include Spring Break (March 8, 2027 - March 12, 2027) and Bad Weather Make Up Day (conditional) (February 15, 2027). Early release or half-day entries to watch include Early Release (December 18, 2026) and Early Release (May 27, 2027). Teacher workdays, planning days, or student holidays are separated from regular school days, including Student Holiday (September 21, 2026), Student Holiday (October 30, 2026), Student Holiday (February 12, 2027), and Student Holiday (March 26, 2027). Bad-weather, inclement-weather, or makeup-day language is preserved when the district publishes it, which matters for childcare, transportation, and travel planning.
Official-source handling: Dates are from the SCUC ISD 2026/27 approved academic calendar. We manually review first-party district material, screen it for student-facing dates, and organize it into key dates, calendar grids, downloadable files, and printable summaries. Because this page is marked official, families can use it as the main planning view while still checking the district source for late revisions. User-submitted corrections are checked against official district sources before this page is updated.
