Calendar updates following winter weather closures

Because of the days missed due to winter weather, Presidents Day (Feb. 16, 2026) will no longer be a holiday for students or staff. Additionally, three previously scheduled half days will now be full instructional days.

• Friday, Feb. 6, 2026

• Thursday, March 19, 2026

• Friday, April 17, 2026

Additional calendar updates due to the April 21 special election

April 21 is the date of a special election across Virginia, and robust voter turnout is expected. Because most Chesterfield County schools serve as voting sites:

• Students will not come to school April 21.

• To make up this time, May 28 will become a full day for students on the traditional calendar. (Previously, May 28 was an early-dismissal day.)

• Students on the year-round calendar at Bellwood Elementary will also be out of school April 21; however, no further changes are being made to Bellwood’s calendar in regard to makeup time.

Due to these changes, printable 2025-26 school calendars are no longer available as they are now out of date.
