🏫 Habad (Gan Chayush) vs ISPG — the year, day by day

Sep 2026 → Aug 2027 · top lane = Habad, bottom lane = ISPG · columns aligned by date

Open (solid) Friday half-day — Habad, to 13:00 (half-filled) Closed (cross-hatch) Exam week — ISPG, school open (stripes) Optional summer program (dots) Weekend

Where they collide — and where they don't

The closures are nearly complementary.

September: Habad is broken up by the High Holidays while ISPG runs a full 22-day month.
Spring flips: ISPG closes for Songkran (Apr 5–16) while Habad is open; Habad closes for Pesach (Apr 19–30) just as ISPG returns.
Every Friday Habad ends at 13:00 — a standing weekly gap vs ISPG's full Friday.
Winter mostly overlaps: Habad's December break (14–25) ≈ ISPG's Christmas break (21–31).
July–August: both run optional paid summer programs (Habad kaytana · ISPG summer school to Aug 25).

Sources: Gan Chayush תשפ״ז info pack (its cover says "2025-2026" but תשפ״ז is 2026-27, as its own fees page states) and the ISPG 2026-2027 academic calendar photo. Habad closure dates read from the gan's Hebrew-year calendar (red = closed); chol hamoed Sukkot days appear open — worth confirming. ISPG monthly school-day counts match the official printed counts. Aug 2027 beyond the printed calendars (dashed cells) is unknown; Thai Mother's Day (12 Aug 2027) would likely close ISPG summer school. Both calendars warn dates may change.
