Calendar Notes
Allegany County opened the 2025-2026 year on August 27, 2025, with a three-hour early dismissal. Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten did not all start on the same day: students with last names A-L began September 2, students with last names M-Z began September 3, and all Pre-K and Kindergarten students attended September 4. Families comparing this page with older-student schedules should treat those early-childhood dates separately from the districtwide first day.
This year uses a traditional Western Maryland break pattern: Thanksgiving Vacation runs November 27-December 1, Christmas Vacation runs December 24-January 2, and Easter Vacation runs April 1-6. The Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks both begin after a three-hour early dismissal on the prior school day, November 26 and December 23, which can change afternoon care even before the full break starts.
The last day for students is June 10, 2026, also a three-hour early dismissal. Other three-hour early dismissals fall on September 26, October 17, January 16, February 13, and March 27. Parent Conference Days on October 6 and March 2 are full student holidays, while report card dates, marking-period endings, graduation ceremonies, and staff-only details are not treated as districtwide student closures on the public calendar.
- First day for students: August 27, 2025
- Last day for students: June 10, 2026
