US school holidays in 2028 are shaped by the Los Angeles Summer Olympics (JulyโAugust) and a Presidential Election in November. Schools in the LA area may have logistical adjustments around the Olympics period.
Summer holidays: 10โ13 weeks from late May or June to August or early September. The LA Olympics overlap with most districts' summer breaks โ families in Southern California should plan around Olympic venue access and traffic.
Thanksgiving break: Most schools close around Thanksgiving (23 November) โ typically the full week in most districts.
Winter break: Two weeks from approximately 20โ22 December 2028 to 5โ7 January 2029. Christmas Day (25 December, Monday) gives the break a clean structure.
Election Day 2028: Some districts close schools on 7 November 2028 for use as polling stations.
