Savannah-Chatham County Public School System School Calendar 2027-2028

The first student day is August 2 and the last is May 19. Veterans Day on November 11 is a holiday, but November 12 remains a half day of remote learning at home. February 18 is the second remote half day, followed by the weekend and a February 21 planning day without students. In October, students are off for planning October 7, the fall holiday October 8 and Columbus Day October 11; the second nine weeks begin October 12. The new semester starts January 4 after the December holidays and January 3 planning day.

Spring break falls March 27–31, with students expected back April 3. March 27–28 are designated make-up candidates, as are November 22–23 during Thanksgiving week. If activated, the Superintendent decides between in-person and remote learning. April 14 is a separate holiday, not an extension of March spring break; April 3–13 otherwise follows the scheduled school weekdays. March 17 is also a student holiday before the fourth nine weeks start March 20. Report cards follow May 26, a week after the May 19 student finish. Neither semester-ending date is marked for early dismissal.
