DCPS day off Tuesday June 16, 2026?

Anonymous
I was looking at the 2025-26 DCPS calendar (next school year). For June, it shows a school day Monday 6/15, then the last day Wednesday 6/17, but one of those days off just listed as "***" (not PD or PTC or whatever) on Tuesday 6/16. Anyone know what that is? Why have a day, then a mystery day off, then another day?

The last day of school is Friday, June 13. Anything beyond that is unimportant.

Will there be a primary election next year?

June 16 is Trump's birthday and a bill is currently in the house to make it a federal holiday. I REALLY HOPE DCPS is not anticipating its passage

lol given that the calendar was published years ago I’m guessing not.

Teacher here and I've also been wondering what that day is. Primaries tend to be earlier in June and I cannot find what holiday it might be anywhere...

Primaries are every other year and then alternate between first Tuesday and third Tuesday. 2024 was first Tuesday, 2022 was 3rd Tuesday.

Good Lord I hope it isn’t a day off. DCPS has the most ridiculous calendar.

Hard to care what next June's schedule is when they still haven't officially announced how many make-up days they're trying to have this June.

The new WTU CBA includes "wellness days" for teachers which are days off without PD, etc.
Perhaps June 16 is one of those days?

Truly. Seems to benefit neither teachers nor students/families.

No, it’s for a primary election day.

Trump's birthdays is June 14 and is also Flag Day. I believe June 16, 2026, is primary elections- (is a Tuesday)
