Winter-break return dates are the first school day after each calendar's last listed no-school day (Jeffco prints its break end, Jan 5, explicitly). Denver Public Schools: Oct 12 is a conference day — the calendar doesn't say whether students attend; check your school. Calendars can change — the district link is the authority.
