Anglophone South School District is a school district in New Brunswick, with opening and closing arrangements that vary by grade group. Its calendar for 2026–27 distinguishes the first days of school and separates the elementary and senior last days.

Common questions
Which first and last days of school apply to my child?
The first day of school is Tuesday, September 8, 2026 (Grades 1–5) / Tuesday, September 8, 2026 (Grade 6 and Grade 9 (transition day)) / Tuesday, September 8 to Wednesday, September 9, 2026 (Kindergarten (transition days: half of the students attend on each day)) / Wednesday, September 9, 2026 (Grades 7–8 and 10–12), and the last day is Friday, June 18, 2027 (grades 9–12) / Friday, June 25, 2027 (K–8). Match the student’s grade group to the entries in the regular key-dates table. The district publishes different opening arrangements and separate elementary and senior finishing days. For a participating pilot school, consult the pilot table instead for its applicable schedule.
Are report-card preparation days ordinary class days?
No. Students have no classes on report-card preparation days. Check the regular calendar, or the pilot calendar if your child’s school is listed in that group.
What does the calendar’s current-as-of note tell me?
It identifies when the district described that published calendar as current. Read the note alongside the key-dates table to understand the version represented here, and consult the district’s own calendar when confirming the arrangements for a particular school.
How do I know whether the pilot schedule applies?
The pilot schedule applies if your child’s school is listed above the pilot table. Use that table for its dates; otherwise, use the regular calendar.
What changes between the pilot and regular calendars?
The pilot table shows a later return after Christmas because of a professional learning day, plus one final class day for all grades. The regular calendar separates elementary and senior finishing days. Opening arrangements and March break are shared.
