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.
How 2025 looks for Elementary families
The 2025 calendar straddles two school years: the second half of 2024–2025 from January through May or June, and the first half of 2025–2026 from August through December. For Elementary households, that means the year opens with the spring testing window and report-card finals, drops into summer break around early-to-mid June, restarts in late August with a fresh schedule, and closes with the December finals cycle and winter break.
The federal holidays shaded on every printable month — Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's, MLK Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day — match the OPM schedule under 5 U.S.C. § 6103. These are the closure days you can count on regardless of district. Layered on top are the Elementary-specific events listed above; treat them as planning anchors and confirm the exact dates against your district calendar.
Printing tips
Each monthly grid prints clean on US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) and ISO A4 (210 × 297 mm) paper at 100% scale. Use your browser's Print dialog, choose portrait orientation for the default layout (or open the landscape variant for wider day cells), and disable headers and footers for the cleanest result.
