How we counted, and where this comes from
We read the official Clark County (Las Vegas) 2026-27 calendar on October 4, 2026: https://resources.finalsite.net/images/v1767641305/ccsdnet/ano6uzxheee9tby6g8ta/2026-2027-school-calendar-students-updated-final.pdf. A day counts when school is closed for all students on a weekday, or the whole district lets students out early. Holidays that almost every employer observes (Labor Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas Day, New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Memorial Day) are never counted. Indigenous Peoples’ Day, Veterans Day and Presidents’ Day count as holidays only when the district closes school for that holiday by name, because many employers stay open. That left 7 holidays out of the count here. Nov 25 and Mar 26 are no-school days that turn into school days if the district needs make-up days (May 21 is the third), and elementary students are also off Monday Oct 12 for parent-teacher conferences. Calendars change and some days vary by school, so check with your school before you book childcare.
