Where to get Union City school calendar PDFs and district event dates
The official Open Union City School Calendar page is the first place to check for school-year calendar downloads. The district page lists the 2025-2026 School Calendar for 10 Month Instructional staff and the 2025-2026 School Calendar for 12 Month Non-Instructional staff.
The district calendar page is also connected to older calendar downloads and board meeting schedule links. That means users must be careful: a page can show more than one school year. Always open the current-year PDF before saving dates for school closing, one-session days, holidays, recess, professional days, or parent planning.
For day-by-day school events, district events, board meetings, school closings, and event listings, use the official Open Union City Events Calendar. For campus-specific activities, open the individual school’s official page.
📄 10-month calendar
Use this for the regular instructional school-year calendar and student-related date planning.
📄 12-month calendar
Use this for non-instructional or year-round employee calendar planning when applicable.
🗓️ Event calendar
Use the district events calendar for meetings, school closings, one-session days, and event notices.
⚠️ Recheck before planning
Meeting changes, special notices, closures, and school-year updates can change what families see online.
How to check Union City BOE meeting schedule, agenda notice and public meeting time
The official Open Board Meeting Schedule page lists the Board Meeting Schedule and links to the public notice PDF for the 2025-2026 schedule. The district may also post special meeting notices or rescheduling announcements in the news section.
Union City Board of Education event notices may list a Caucus Meeting at 5:00 p.m. and a Public Meeting at 6:30 p.m.. One official event notice lists the Union City Education Center at 3912 Bergen Turnpike, Union City, New Jersey as the meeting location. However, users should never assume all meetings have the same time or location. The current public notice and event page control the details.
For meeting agenda information, use the official board meeting notice, public notice PDF, Board Secretary resources, and district news posts. Special meeting notices may list the agenda “to the extent known,” and formal action may or may not be taken depending on the notice.
Open the official meeting page
Start with the Board Meeting Schedule page, not an old screenshot or copied PDF from a previous school year.
Check the date and public notice PDF
Open the current board meeting schedule or public notice PDF before attending.
Confirm caucus and public session times
Official event notices may show caucus at 5:00 p.m. and public meeting at 6:30 p.m., but check the exact event.
Check special meeting news
Special meetings, reorganization meetings, rescheduled meetings, and agenda notices may appear in district news.
Agenda warning: Do not write a meeting article from an old agenda notice. Board meeting dates, public notice PDFs, locations, and agenda items can change. Always verify from the official UCBOE meeting page and Board Secretary notices.
