County context: Union County School District serves families in Lake Butler and surrounding communities. For 2026-2027, students are scheduled to start on August 12, 2026 and finish on May 26, 2027. The main family planning blocks are Thanksgiving Holidays (November 21, 2026 - November 29, 2026), Christmas Holidays (December 19, 2026 - January 3, 2027), and Spring Break (March 20, 2027 - March 28, 2027).

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: This calendar is compiled from the official Union County School Board 2026-2027 District Calendar image. 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.
