The first day of school is on a Thursday, based on recommendations and survey results to start school close to midweek.  

One important item to note: the last day of school falls on Thursday, May 27, 2027, which follows feedback to end the academic year prior to Memorial Day. Allen High School’s graduation will be held on Friday, May 28, 2027 to allow greater flexibility for out-of-town families to travel to Allen for the festivities.
