Complete month-by-month calendar for Dixie County Public Schools. Every day is color-coded so you can see school days, holidays, and breaks at a glance.
Dixie District Schools has not published a final 2027-2028 calendar in this data set, so this page is a projected calendar built from Dixie County's own recent official calendars. The projection keeps Dixie's local pattern: a mid-March Suwannee River Fair school closure, a full Thanksgiving week, a Christmas/New Year break extending into early January, and a weekend-to-weekend April spring break.
County context: Dixie County School District serves families in Cross City and surrounding Nature Coast communities. For 2027-2028, students are scheduled to start on August 10, 2027 and finish on May 26, 2028. The main family planning blocks are Thanksgiving Break (November 20, 2027 - November 28, 2027), Christmas Break (December 18, 2027 - January 4, 2028), Suwannee River Fair (March 13, 2028 - March 15, 2028), and Spring Break (April 8, 2028 - April 16, 2028). Parents can use this view for travel windows, shared-custody exchanges, childcare coverage, after-school activities, and comparing district days off with work schedules.
What to watch: Notable local calendar items include Suwannee River Fair (March 13, 2028 - March 15, 2028) and Good Friday (April 14, 2028). No recurring early-release entry is listed in the student-facing data used for this page. Teacher planning days and student holidays are separated from regular school days whenever the official source identifies them. If severe weather later changes the calendar, this page should be checked against the district source before families make travel, attendance, or childcare decisions.
Official-source handling: Projected from Dixie District Schools' 2025-2026 and 2026-2027 official calendars, plus the Suwannee River Fair's recurring March schedule pattern. This is not an official 2027-2028 Dixie County calendar. We manually review first-party district material, screen it for student-facing dates, and organize it into key dates, calendar grids, downloadable files, and printable summaries. Because this page is marked projected, it should be used for early planning until the district releases a final adopted calendar. User-submitted corrections are checked against official district sources before this page is updated.
No. This is a projected Dixie County calendar based on the district's 2025-2026 and 2026-2027 official calendars. It should be replaced when Dixie District Schools publishes a draft or final 2027-2028 calendar.
The projected first day for Dixie students is August 10, 2027, the earliest practical weekday under Florida's August 10 start-date rule.
Dixie's recent official calendars list Suwannee River Fair as a no-school period in March. Because this is a recurring local fair tradition for Dixie-area students, it is included as a local projected break instead of only listing federal holidays.
The projected Dixie school closure for Suwannee River Fair is March 13-15, 2028, matching the recent Monday-Wednesday school-closure pattern around the fair.
Spring Break is projected for April 8-16, 2028, preserving Dixie's recent weekend-to-weekend April break pattern. Good Friday falls inside this projected break on April 14, 2028.
Data Source: Projected from Dixie District Schools' 2025-2026 and 2026-2027 official calendars, plus the Suwannee River Fair's recurring March schedule pattern. This is not an official 2027-2028 Dixie County calendar.

How we adapt the calendar: FL School Calendar converts district calendar documents into a parent-friendly view focused on student attendance, holidays, breaks, teacher planning days, early releases, downloadable calendar files, and printable summaries.
