  • Winter Break is officially December 20-31, but adjacent student holidays extend the actual no-school period from December 17 through January 3.
  • The February conference day and Presidents’ Day holiday connect across the weekend, with students returning February 22.
  • Spring Break and the March 20 student holiday create eight consecutive calendar days without classes; students return March 21.
  • May 26, Memorial Day, and Juneteenth fall after the final student day and are therefore not student-calendar events.

About the Round Rock ISD 2027–2028 District calendar calendar

Data source

This page uses Round Rock ISD’s 2027-2028 District Calendar, updated August 13, 2026, together with the official district calendars page. The English page, color legend, school hours, and detailed date list were reviewed.

How dates are handled

Events retain separately listed official occurrences; continuous family-planning no-school periods are stored in breaks, not as replacement events. Official means a directly printed date, label or range, including a boundary explicitly marked on the calendar grid. Derived includes normalized names, internal event classifications, attendance-status mappings, editorial notes and relationships between dates. Grid legends are not event-specific official labels. Staff preparation before the first day and staff-only dates after the last student day are excluded. Same-date milestones are grouped in the page table.

Updates

The August 13 revision is treated as the current official calendar. New 2028-2029 and 2029-2030 pages will be added only after the district publishes source documents.
