Overview
- Argentina’s 24 jurisdictions approved a three‑block mid‑year recess that begins the first week of July, with the first group of provinces taking holidays from July 6 to July 17 and the last group finishing at the end of July.
- Santa Fe, together with Mendoza, Córdoba, Entre Ríos, San Juan and San Luis, is in the first block and has published a linked cultural and tourism program called “¡Fantásticas Vacaciones!” and a joint Santa Fe–Paraná offer with hotel and restaurant discounts.
- The Mexican education authority (SEP) has ordered a nationwide suspension for an upcoming administrative grading day and has published a revised 2026–27 calendar that moves the start of the next school year to late August.
- Peru’s Ministry of Education issued an adjusted 2026 calendar that allocates a mid‑year gestión block during which classes are suspended while teachers and school leaders conduct training, planning and administrative tasks.
- The calendar changes carry practical effects for families and schools: last instructional days and exam windows shift, returns to class are staggered by province or level, and local governments are timing tourism and cultural programming to match the breaks.
