Anderson Collegiate Vocational Institute’s school calendar confirms that the December Break for the 2025–26 school year will begin Monday, Dec. 22, 2025, with schools closed through Friday, Jan. 2, 2026.
The timing matches the Durham District School Board’s official 2025–26 calendar and Ontario’s provincial school-year schedule. For secondary students, the last day of classes before the break is Friday, Dec. 19, 2025.
The calendar posting gives students, parents and staff in Whitby a clear school-level timeline to plan winter travel, childcare and end-of-term scheduling. During the December Break, schools are closed and regular classes do not run.
The break period is also typically accompanied by a suspension of regular school bus service. Families who rely on Durham Student Transportation Services are advised to confirm last-day routes and any service changes ahead of the holiday period.
For school communities, the December Break window affects more than classroom instruction, including access to school buildings, extracurricular activities and any exams or assessments scheduled before the holiday. Families are encouraged to use the school calendar as the official reference point for local planning.
