7-FCS 2026 - 2027 SCHOOL CALENDAR.pdf

This document is the 2026-2027 school calendar for Fulton County Schools (FCS) in Georgia, detailing the academic schedule for the upcoming school year. The calendar establishes key dates for both the first and second semesters, with pre-planning beginning on July 27 and the first day of school on August 3. The academic year includes scheduled breaks and holidays: Labor Day closure on September 7, Fall Break from September 21-23, a Teacher Workday on November 3, Thanksgiving Holidays from November 23-27, and Winter Break from December 21-31. The second semester commences on January 5 following Winter Break, with additional observances including M.L. King Jr Holiday on January 18, Winter Break from February 15-17, Professional Development Days on February 18-19, and Spring Break from April 5-9. The school year concludes on May 27.

This calendar serves as the operational framework for FCS and directly supports the district's Pediatric Healthcare Nursing Services contract opportunity, which requires healthcare services to be delivered in alignment with the school calendar. The calendar establishes when nursing services must be actively available to serve the student population during instructional days and identifies periods when school facilities and services operate at reduced capacity or closure, which impacts service delivery scheduling and staffing requirements for any contracted nursing provider.
