May 2027 Calendar

Print it early and fill in graduation, awards night, exam days and any end-of-year performances. Parents can add teacher gifts, field trip forms and pickup changes. The page works as a countdown to the last day of school: cross off each day. Switch on Write online to try out arrangements for a family weekend before printing. Pin it up where children can see when the busiest weeks fall.

May starts on a Saturday, so the first row has only one date and the month needs six rows in the Sunday-start layout. The last day, Monday the 31st, is Memorial Day, which means the month ends on a holiday weekend. Many schools finish in late May or early June, so this page often doubles as the final stretch of the school year, with more events packed in than any other month.

Keep US federal holidays on for Memorial Day, or pick US holidays and observances to add Mother's Day on the 9th. Switching Week starts to Monday removes the one-date first row and gives five rows. Use Notes for a graduation party checklist. Landscape suits wide cells for several events a day.

Is Mother's Day on this page?

Not by default. Choose US holidays and observances in the panel and Mother's Day, Sunday May 9, is added to its cell. Otherwise write it in by hand along with any brunch plans.

What date is Memorial Day in 2027?

Monday, May 31, the last Monday of the month. It is marked in its cell, so the month closes on a long weekend. Plan any end-of-school gatherings around it.

Why does May 2027 take six rows?

May 1 is a Saturday, so with a Sunday start the 1st sits alone in the first row and the 31st ends up in the sixth. Start the week on Monday to get five rows.
