Appling County School System School Calendar 2026-2027

Appling County’s fall holiday falls on October 12–13, but students also have October 9 off for in-service. With the weekend between them, that leaves five days without regular classes before the October 14 return. Thanksgiving holidays cover the full school week of November 23–27. November 11 is another holiday, separate from Thanksgiving week, so it needs its own childcare plan.

Winter holidays run December 21–January 1. Students do not return on the first Monday in January: January 4–5 are in-service days, and the calendar marks January 6 as the next first day. December 18, the Friday before winter holidays, is a half day and the end of a nine-week term. The other half day is May 21, the final student date before the May 24–25 staff days. Neither half day has a dismissal time on this calendar. Spring holidays run March 26–April 2, with classes expected to resume April 5. Check school notices for pickup arrangements and any later changes.
