Complete month-by-month calendar for Madison County Public Schools. Every day is color-coded so you can see school days, holidays, and breaks at a glance.
Madison County School District serves approximately 2,500 students in Madison and surrounding communities in North Florida. Madison County uses a unique staggered start for the school year: PreK, K, 1st, and 9th graders start on August 10, while Grades 2–8 and 10–12 begin on August 12. This allows new students to acclimate. The district's last day varies by grade level.
County context: Madison County School District serves families in Madison and surrounding communities. For 2026-2027, students are scheduled to start on August 10, 2026 and finish on May 26, 2027. The main family planning blocks are Thanksgiving Break (November 23, 2026 - November 27, 2026), Winter Break (December 21, 2026 - January 5, 2027), and Spring Break (March 15, 2027 - March 19, 2027). 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. No recurring early-release entry is listed in the student-facing data used for this page. Teacher workdays, planning days, or student holidays are separated from regular school days, including Inservice Day (No School) (October 15, 2026), Teacher Workday (No School) (October 16, 2026), Teacher Workday (No School) (January 4, 2027), and Inservice Day (No School) (January 5, 2027). 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 Madison County 2026-2027 School Calendar approved by the Madison County School Board on February 2, 2026. 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.
