About Spring Break

Most districts schedule spring break as a single calendar week between the second week of March and the third week of April. Eastern and Southern districts more often anchor the break to Good Friday and Easter Monday; Western and Mountain districts more often pick a fixed week (typically the second week of March or the first week of April) without regard to the religious calendar.

Universal across K–12 and higher education, but the exact week varies more than any other school break. Spring break is the most variable date on the school calendar. If you're planning travel, print the March and April calendars side-by-side and confirm with your district before booking — neighboring districts can be a full month apart.

Federal holidays typically inside the Spring Break window

No fixed federal holidays fall inside the Spring Break window in most years. The break is a district scheduling decision rather than a federal closure, which is exactly why the dates vary so much between districts.

Printing tips for letter-size paper

To plan a specific school year's Spring Break, open the year-specific page above and print the relevant monthly grid in portrait orientation on US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) paper at 100% scale. The federal holidays in the window are pre-shaded; mark your district's actual closure days by hand for a personal planning sheet.
