Osceola County public schools are on spring break Monday, March 15, to Friday, March 19, 2027. With the student holiday on Friday, March 12, most kids get nine days off in a row, from March 12 through Sunday, March 21. Classes resume Monday, March 22.

The dates

Date What
Thu. March 11 Early release; end of the third grading period
Fri. March 12 Teacher workday, student holiday (or emergency make-up day)
March 15-19 Spring break
Mon. March 22 Classes resume

District: 407-870-4600. Private and charter schools set their own dates.

One caveat from the district: March 12 is also one of its emergency make-up days, so if school days are lost to a storm it could become a school day.
