About NC School Calendar

NCSchoolCalendar.com collects the official school calendars of North Carolina's public school districts in one place — first and last days, spring and winter breaks, and student holidays — so families can plan without hunting through district PDFs.

Where the dates come from

Every date on this site is taken directly from the district's own published calendar, and each district page links its source. We re-verify when districts adopt or amend calendars (typically December–February for the following year, and after weather closures force make-up-day changes).

A note on NC's calendar law

North Carolina law (G.S. 115C-84.2) requires traditional-calendar schools to start no earlier than the Monday closest to August 26 and end no later than the Friday closest to June 11, with exceptions for year-round schools and weather-waiver districts. That's why most NC districts open within the same late-August week.

Corrections

Districts amend calendars mid-year. If you spot a date that's changed, email [email protected] and we'll verify against the district source and fix it.
