Clark County's 2026-27 year is the early one: classes begin Monday, August 10, 2026 and the school year ends Thursday, May 20, 2027, with a week at spring break and two at winter break. The days that catch Las Vegas parents out are the single ones: four staff development Mondays and Tuesdays with no school for students, Nevada Day on a Friday at the end of October, a conference day in October when elementary kids are home but middle and high schoolers are not, and three "contingency days" that are days off unless the district needs them.
Below is the district's Student Calendar, every dated line, with CCSD's own wording kept intact — then how to get it onto your phone next to the team schedules.
Source: CCSD 2026-2027 School Calendar for Students (PDF) and ccsd.net/calendars. Last checked November 6, 2026. This is the district's Student Calendar, marked "Subject to change" and dated 9/4/25; the separate Staff Calendar (with the 9-month and 12-month employee work years) is not the source of any date here.
Every date below is copied from the district's own published calendar, not estimated. Districts do revise mid-year, so confirm against the source before you book anything around a date.
23 published entries, 14 of them closures or breaks. A single entry can cover a span of days. Labels are the district's wording.

Wednesday, November 25 and Friday, March 26 are listed as "No School" with "First Contingency Day (if needed)" and "Second Contingency Day (if needed)" beneath; Friday, May 21, the day after the school year ends, is the "Third Contingency Day (if needed)". The calendar does not spell out what triggers them, only that they are held in reserve. Treat them as days off that could turn into school days, and re-check the district's calendar after any unplanned closure.
Monday, October 12 is "Elementary School Parent-Teacher Conferences (No School for Elementary Students Only)". Middle and high school students attend as normal. If you have one kid in each, it is the one weekday this year when the two calendars split.
Winter break and spring break are each written two ways on the calendar: "Winter Break Begins - End of Day" on Friday, December 18 (a full school day, and the end of the first semester) with "No School December 21 - January 1", and "Spring Break Begins - End of Day" on Friday, March 12 with "No School March 15 - March 19". Classes resume Tuesday, January 5 (after a January 4 staff development day) and Monday, March 22.
The district prints the counts: first grading period 44 days to October 9, second 45 days to December 18 (first semester 89 days), third 48 days to March 12, fourth 43 days to May 20 (second semester 91 days, school year 180 days). The second semester formally begins Monday, January 4, a staff development day, with students back on January 5.
The Student Calendar carries an asterisk on its title and the footer "*Subject to change", with a 9/4/25 date. No early-release days appear on this calendar; school start and dismissal times are published separately by the district and are not reproduced here.
The quick way: create a free Schedule Caddie account from this page and the 2026-27 calendar above is already on it as your own schedule — the version we verified on November 6, 2026, yours to edit. If Clark County revises the calendar later, upload the new version and you see exactly which days changed before approving them.
Doing it yourself, or a different district:
The district publishes this calendar as a document, not a feed you can subscribe to. Schedule Caddie reads that document for you: download the 2026-27 calendar from the district (the source link above), upload it as a PDF, PNG, or JPG up to 10MB, and it pulls out the no-school days, breaks, early releases with their dismissal times, teacher days, and the first and last day of school.
Nothing is saved until you have looked at it. Every day it found shows up as its own row with the date and label, you uncheck what you don't want and fix anything it misread, and only then does it land on your family calendar, color-coded as School so a holiday Monday reads differently from a 4pm practice. Team schedules you have added as calendar links keep refreshing on their own; the school year sits beside them.
Either way it travels like anything else on your Schedule Caddie calendar: subscribe to your Schedule Caddie link in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or Outlook and the school days come along.

Classes begin Monday, August 10, 2026. The end of the school year is Thursday, May 20, 2027, which the calendar lists as the end of the fourth grading period, the second semester and the 180-day year. Friday, May 21 is a "Third Contingency Day (if needed)".
Spring break begins at the end of the day on Friday, March 12, 2027, with no school Monday, March 15 through Friday, March 19. Classes resume Monday, March 22. Note that the following Friday, March 26, is also no school (the second contingency day) and Monday, March 29 is a staff development day with no school for students.
Winter break begins at the end of the day on Friday, December 18, 2026, with no school December 21 through January 1. Monday, January 4, 2027 is a staff development day with no school for students, and classes resume Tuesday, January 5.
No. Wednesday, November 25, 2026 is listed as "No School" and as the "First Contingency Day (if needed)". Thursday and Friday, November 26–27 are "Thanksgiving Day and Family Day (No School)". Because the Wednesday is a contingency day, it is the one most likely to change if the district needs to make up lost time.
Every kid, every schedule, every app — merged, color-coded, and watched for changes.
