\"\"<\/a>The Burnaby School District is welcoming feedback and comments until February 10, 2026, about the proposed three-year calendar for the school years 2026-27 through 2028-29. The calendar sets out winter and spring breaks, as well as school closure days, including District-wide professional days.<\/p>\n

School Calendar Summary 2026-2029<\/a><\/p>\n

The following is of note:<\/p>\n

The proposed three-year calendar is aligned with most Metro Vancouver school districts.
\nSince 2014, the Burnaby School District has been operating with five school closure days. The instructional time lost, due to the closure days, is added to the remaining days in session.
\nIn the 2026-27 and 2028-29 school years, Good Friday \u2013 a statutory holiday \u2013 occurs during the typical period of time for spring break. As such, one of the school closure days has been allocated to the Friday before winter break.
\nSchools will each choose two Professional Development Days over the course of the school year for a total of six, including District-wide days. These are published in the spring before the following year\u2019s calendar.
\nEach year, all Burnaby Schools meet the required hours of instruction.<\/p>\n

If you have feedback, please share it by emailing\u00a0calendar@burnabyschools.ca<\/a><\/p>\n
