Iredell-Statesville Schools School Calendar 2026-2027

At a Glance

ISS is a rural school district with 38 schools. For the 2026-2027 school year, classes begin August 12 and end May 27. Iredell-Statesville Schools operates Early College programs that begin earlier than North Carolina state law typically allows, under a special waiver approved by the board. Iredell-Statesville Schools runs more than one calendar program (Traditional Schools, Early College campuses, and N.B. Mills Elementary School) -- this page covers the Traditional Schools 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. This calendar includes 8 early-release or half days — useful to know when planning childcare.
