What does the following sentence mean?

Tomorrow was the first day to get scheduled off the calendar.

I got this message from a teacher.

I can hazard a guess that the teacher meant that tomorrow is the first day that they are scheduled to be off.
 
Perhaps tomorrow is the first day that you can get yourself removed from a particular schedule. (i.e. some kind of rotating shift schedule). Or perhaps to schedule your future days off.

That sentence is a time paradox waiting to happen, regardless.
 
The sentence starts:

Tomorrow was

Which puts tomorrow in the past.

When a sentence starts that way it's unlikely to make much sense. (I had to look up "time paradox." 😊)

If I got a message like that I would almost certainly ask for clarification.
