Local Calendar Notes for Families

County context: Leon County Schools serves families in Tallahassee and surrounding communities. For 2025-2026, students are scheduled to start on August 11, 2025 and finish on May 22, 2026. The main family planning blocks are Thanksgiving Break (November 24, 2025 - November 28, 2025), Winter Break (December 22, 2025 - January 2, 2026), and Spring Break (March 16, 2026 - March 20, 2026). 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: The most important local differences from a generic statewide calendar are the district's own break placement, board-approved student holidays, and any campus-facing schedule notes published by the district. Early release or half-day entries to watch include Exam Day / Early Release (May 20, 2026), Exam Day / Early Release (May 21, 2026), and Last Day of School / Early Release (May 22, 2026). Teacher workdays, planning days, or student holidays are separated from regular school days, including Student Holiday (October 13, 2025), Student Holiday (January 5, 2026), Student Holiday (January 6, 2026), and Student Holiday (March 23, 2026). Weather or makeup-day language is preserved in the page notes when the district publishes it, which matters for hurricane-season planning and emergency childcare coverage.

Official-source handling: This calendar is compiled from the official Leon County Schools academic calendar published on leonschools.net. 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 official, families can use it as the main planning view while still checking the district source for late revisions. User-submitted corrections are checked against official district sources before this page is updated.
