Any of you old veterans have a handle on what days off we public school teacher might expect?

I tried asking my co-teacher but it was a lost cause. They're not into the whole future looking thing.

Tell your co-teacher that you need the 학사일정 및 수업시수 확보 연간 계획 (Hak-sa-il-jeong mit su-eop-shi-su hwak-bo yeon-gan gye-hoik) and you need it now. It's the school's annual academic calendar and has all the national holidays, days off at the principal's discretion, and other events listed. The thing's usually printed as two pages, one for each semester. Days off are shaded. Don't worry about the unshaded Saturdays as those are only for the Korean teachers and the students.

Our school:
May, Wed 5th and Fri 21st.
June Wed 2nd
Sept Tue 21st-Fri 24th.
Nov Thurs 18th.

Principal may add days to make longer weekends or full weeks off.

May 5th is a holiday. Depending on your principal you may have the 6th and 7th off too like mine. May 21st is also a holiday.

I believe that's all for spring.
