About SchoolDaysOff

Why this exists

Every parent of a school-aged child has had the same experience: you're trying to plan a vacation, schedule a doctor's appointment, or arrange childcare, and you need to know when school is closed.

The information exists — it's published by every school district in the US. But it lives buried in PDFs, on calendar pages that change every year, and in formats that don't translate well to phones. There's no Google-style way to just look up your child's school and see every closure date in one place.

That's what SchoolDaysOff is for.

What we do

• →Maintain a searchable directory of US public schools and their closure calendars.
• →Show every closure date with the reason — holidays, teacher workdays, breaks, weather days, and more.
• →Let parents compare closures side-by-side across schools (useful for families with kids in different districts).
• →Keep everything free, fast, and require no account or login.

Where the data comes from

School and district information comes from publicly available sources, including the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) and district websites. Closure calendars are sourced from each district's published academic calendar.

We do our best to keep dates accurate, but always double-check with your school for last-minute changes — especially around weather closures or emergencies.

Free, no login, no tracking nonsense

SchoolDaysOff is free for parents and always will be. The site is supported by ads, which keeps the lights on without charging users.

No account is required. No newsletter signup. No popup begging for your email. Just search, find your school, get your dates, and move on with your day.
