The Hoover Board of Education recently approved the calendar for the 2027-28 school year.
It’s very similar to the 2026-27 calendar, with minimal changes. Perhaps the most notable is a slightly later spring break — only by a few days.
School officials say they are trying to give people plenty of advance notice for planning purposes, particularly those who may want to make travel plans when school is out.
