Calendar Notes
Calvert County starts students on August 25, 2026, with orientation for grades 6 and 9 on August 24 before the regular first day. PreK and kindergarten have staggered starts on August 27 and August 28, so the first week is not the same for every family. Compared with Charles County, Calvert starts one day later and ends earlier, with June 9 listed as the last day for students.
This calendar includes a long run of two-hour early dismissals, and the PreK note matters: AM/PM PreK does not meet on those early dismissal dates. Families should watch September 16, October 1, October 12 for parent conferences, October 30, December 9, January 22, February 24, March 17, April 9, June 2, June 3, and June 9. The June 2-3 early dismissals are tied to graduations, which can affect routines even before the last student day.
Calvert's spring recess runs March 26-April 2, later than Charles County's March 22-29 break and closer to Frederick and Montgomery. Possible weather make-up days are April 23, June 10, and June 11; those dates should stay flexible rather than being treated as guaranteed days off. For families arranging summer care, Calvert's June 9 ending is earlier than Charles, Prince George's, Baltimore County, and Harford in the current data.
- First day for students: August 25, 2026
