Each date comes from the district's own 2026-27 calendar, checked on Thu, Oct 8, 2026. Palm Beach lists no line called 'last day'; its date is the end of the fourth quarter. Clark County and Fairfax print the last day only inside a colored grid we could not read reliably, so they are left out.
First day of 2027-28: Gwinnett County lists Wed, Aug 4, 2027. Other districts had not published 2027-28 calendars we could read.

How spread out is the last day of school?
Across the nine districts we could check, the 2026-27 school year ends over a span of 33 days. Six finish in the last week of May: Gwinnett and Dallas on Wed, May 26, Hawaii and Palm Beach on Thu, May 27, Houston and Broward on Fri, May 28. Miami-Dade follows on Thu, Jun 3, Chicago on Fri, Jun 11, and New York City on Mon, Jun 28.
So "how many days until summer break" has no single answer. A family in Dallas and a family in New York are a month apart. The headline counter uses the middle of the table, Fri, May 28, as a reference point. The row for your district is the number to trust.
Why does Memorial Day matter here?
Memorial Day 2027 is Mon, May 31, a federal holiday. For most districts in the table it lands after the last day, so it does not shorten the school year count. For Miami-Dade, Chicago and New York it falls inside the final stretch, which removes one more day from the business-day count to their last day.
What about the first day of next year?
Only one district in our list had a readable 2027-28 calendar when we checked: Gwinnett County starts Wed, Aug 4, 2027. That leaves Gwinnett students about ten weeks of summer. We add other districts when their boards publish calendars we can open.
