Michigan Schools Winter & Spring Break Schedules through 2030

When is Spring Break 2026 in Michigan public schools? By Michigan law, all public school districts in a county must share a common Winter Break and Spring Break. Ann Arbor Public Schools is part of the Washtenaw Intermediate School District (WISD). WISD quietly approved the calendars through 2030 in April 2025. This calendar includes Winter Break 2025, Spring Break 2026, Winter Break 2026, and Spring Break 2027 all the way through Spring Break 2030.

Winter and Spring Break Schedules

WISD lists the breaks as the date that school ends and the date that school resumes. AAPS often lists the dates as days of school closed.

To confuse matters, I’m using a third method of reporting breaks. I am reporting the first day off (typically a Saturday) and the last day off (typically a Sunday)

Michigan Schools Spring Break 2026

Spring break continues to be the last week of March for Washtenaw County. Much of Michigan has the same week off..

Washtenaw County Spring Break is described as starting on the last Monday of March unless that is March 31, then it starts on Monday, March 24 (or Saturday, March 22). This exception is not needed in the 2025-2030 range.

2025-2026 – Saturday, March 28-Sunday, April 5
2026-2027 – Saturday, March 27-Sunday, April 4
2027-2028 – Saturday, March 25-Sunday, April 2
2028-2029 – Saturday, March 24-Sunday, April 1
2029-2030 – Saturday, March 23-Sunday, March 31

While WISD sets the week of spring break as the end of March, Easter can affect the spring break dates. Personally, I always preferred when Easter was not during spring break since many areas of the country still tie their spring break to Easter weekend.

Spring Break 2026 ends on Easter Sunday. Some districts typically are off on Easer Monday and may extend break.

Spring Break 2027 starts on Easter weekend. AAPS has already announced that they will start spring break a day early since they usually give off on Good Friday.

Spring Break 2028 is unaffected by Easter which falls on April 16.

Like 2026, Spring Break 2029 ends on Easter and some districts may include an extra day at the end of break.

Spring Break 2030 is not affected by Easter which is April 21.

Amazing 2025 Ann Arbor Spring Break Camp Options

When is Spring Break 2026 for high school in Michigan? They have the same spring break as elementary schools. However, your child may have school related activities that continue during spring break. As a member of FIRST Robotics in High School, my daughter often had meets during spring break. I’ve also seen marching bands, theater, and other clubs traveling as a group during spring break. Athletes and others many continue to have practices and competitions during spring break.

When Does School Start in 2025 in Michigan?

Historically, the Michigan school year starts after Labor Day. However, a waiver is now available that allows Michigan schools to start the last week of August.

Washtenaw Intermediate School District had a waiver in place that allows districts to start early. Ann Arbor Public Schools will start on Monday, August 25, 2025 and Monday, August 31, 2026.

When does school start in 2028 in Michigan? We will have to wait and see. My guess is we will continue to see the pre-Labor Day start.
