Spring 2026 for Elementary (K–5)
The Spring 2026 semester runs from January 12, 2026 through May 8, 2026 as part of the 2025-2026 Academic Year school year. For kindergarten through fifth-grade families and elementary teachers, this semester is anchored by the federal holidays observed in the spring term and the Elementary-specific milestones layered on top of the OPM federal calendar.
Elementary calendars on PrintCalendars highlight early-dismissal Wednesdays where common, professional development days that turn into parent days off, and the long stretches between breaks when after-school care matters most.

Printing tips for letter-size paper
Print the months above in portrait orientation on US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) paper at 100% scale for the standard printable layout, or switch each month to landscape when you need wider day cells for written notes. The Elementary milestones listed here are layered onto the federal calendar — they do not replace it, so a single printed sheet works across siblings in different grade bands.
