AgriLife IT has created a website application for County Coordinators to enter the holiday schedule for your County Extension Office. This authenticated system allows County Coordinators and District Office Managers access to the system. Therefore, only County Coordinators and DOMs have access to enter the holidays.
All AgriLife Extension employees will be entitled to observe fifteen (15) paid holidays for FY2026 (9/1/25 – 8/31/26), regardless of where they are located (county office, district/research center, or on-campus).
County Coordinators may choose holidays from a pre-existing list of common holidays, selecting “other” to enter in a custom holiday and/or select floating state holiday(s), if applicable. *SPECIAL NOTE* – If your county will be observing “Good Friday”, please refer to it as a “Personal Holiday” and enter the date of April 3, 2026.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
A “DRAFT” of the anticipated holidays for FY21 (9/1/25 – 8/31/26) is required.
- Please estimate and submit a “DRAFT” of the 15 anticipated holidays, based on last year’s holiday schedule even if the court has not approved the county holiday schedule.
- You must submit a “FINAL” submission (with 15 holidays) as soon as you receive the court approved holiday schedule.
- If your County has more than 15 scheduled holidays … AgriLife Extension employees must work or use vacation on the additional scheduled county holiday dates.
- If your County has less than 15 scheduled holidays … please enter the appropriate number of Floating State Holidays in the box at the top of the list.
- Floating state holidays (if applicable), will not be entered in Workday until the “FINAL” holiday schedule is submitted.
- You will continue to receive automated reminder emails until your “DRAFT” and/or “FINAL” holiday schedule is submitted. So, please submit these ASAP.
- Once you submit your “FINAL” holiday schedule, your ability to make changes will be deactivated. Contact Tyisha Thomas at tyisha.thomas@ag.tamu.edu to reactivate your account, if you need to revise the “FINAL” holidays submitted.
The “DRAFT” is due by AUGUST 31, 2025
- Include the holidays to be observed from September 1, 2025 – December 31, 2025 and the anticipated holidays to be observed from January 1, 2026 – August 31, 2026 (pending court approval for calendar year 2025).
The “FINAL” is due by JANUARY 15, 2026
Include 15 court-approved county holidays that will be observed from September 1, 2025 – August 31, 2026. (Also, list the number of floating state holidays, if applicable.)
