Source and scope

About the San Antonio ISD 2026–2027 Third Future Schools calendar

Data source

This calendar uses the official 2026-2027 academic calendar linked by San Antonio ISD for its Third Future Schools campuses. The PDF is revised March 7, 2026 and lists 184 student-teacher contact days.

How dates are handled

Holiday, recess, staff-development and conference events retain their official boundaries. Breaks combine these events with intervening weekends and reference their component IDs. Quarter boundaries describe grading milestones and are not no-school causes. Fifth Quarter is retained as a separate pre-year summer program; June make-up dates remain conditional. Staff-only dates after the regular year and the May 31 holiday outside the regular student year are excluded. The noSchoolDayEventIds index contains confirmed no-class or no-student events and excludes conditional make-up dates. Conditional attendance is a normalized interpretation of official make-up designations; the event basis and source labels retain the official evidence.

Updates

The district’s Third Future Schools materials identify this as a separate campus calendar. Families should follow Tafolla, Hirsch, or Ogden communications for program eligibility, field-trip details, and activation of June make-up dates.

Disclaimer

This independent reference is not operated by San Antonio ISD or Third Future Schools. Confirm summer participation, conference appointments, transportation, field trips, and any make-up-day decision with your child’s campus.
