September 2026 Calendar

Print it for the first month of the school year and fill in drop-offs, open houses, sports sign-ups and teacher conferences. Teachers copy one for the wall to track units and tests. Hang a copy on the fridge so everyone sees the long weekend at the start. Choose Write online if you plan to mark dates on screen before printing, and download the PDF once the dates are right.

September starts midweek, so the first row has only four days, Tuesday through Saturday. That shifts everything and surprises parents who count the first week as a full school week. Labor Day on September 7 removes a Monday, which matters for homework and lesson plans. Use it to place the first quiz, a picture day or a parent night, then keep a separate list for supplies and forms.

Leave Holidays on US federal so Labor Day is printed in its cell. Choose Monday start if you work Monday to Friday, since the weekend then sits together at the right. Turn on Notes for a supply list or a lunch plan. Pick Landscape for wider cells if you write a lot per day, or portrait for taller ones.

On which weekday does the September 2026 grid begin?

Tuesday. The first row begins with the 1st under Tuesday, so Sunday and Monday are blank. The month has 30 days and ends on a Wednesday, which gives it five rows.

When is Labor Day in 2026?

Monday, September 7. It is the US federal holiday printed in its cell on this page. Switch Holidays to another country list or No holidays if you want the cell left clear.

Can I make this page for a school year start?

Yes. Print September, then change Month to August or October for the neighbors. Add Notes on each for supply lists and events, and keep the set together in a folder or on a wall.
