District Instructional Calendar

The Board approved CVUSD’s instructional calendar for the 2027–28 school year. The calendar was developed collaboratively by the district and the Castro Valley Teachers Association and was formally ratified by CVTA.

The first day of school will be Tuesday, August 10, 2027, and the last day of school will be Wednesday, May 31, 2028. The calendar also identifies staff development days, school breaks, holidays, reporting periods, and districtwide minimum or early-release days.

The Board also asked the district to gather feedback from families about calendar priorities and preferences. An upcoming survey will provide families with an opportunity to share their perspectives and help inform calendar discussions. Because the instructional calendar is a negotiated item, family feedback will be considered alongside instructional requirements and the collective bargaining process.

Families are encouraged to review the calendar when planning appointments, travel, and other activities for the 2027–28 school year.
