CRECPS is a suburban school district with 16 schools. For the 2026-2027 school year, classes begin August 31 and end June 11. CREC was founded in 1966 and serves Hartford and 35 surrounding towns as one of six Regional Educational Service Centers established under Connecticut state law. Capitol Region Education Council runs more than one calendar program (River Street School (180-day Traditional), River Street School (209-day program), and River Street School (Extended Services 240-day program)) -- this page covers the River Street School (180-day Traditional) calendar; other programs follow a different schedule. Calendar dates are confirmed for part of the year; the rest of the 2026-2027 calendar isn't available yet — check back soon. The calendar sets aside 2 additional days (March 26–June 14) that may be used as weather makeup days if needed. This calendar includes 2 early-release or half days — useful to know when planning childcare.
