[quote=Anonymous]It's because there aren't enough large vacations in the school year that you feel burn-out. In my home country of France, the summer vacation is shorter (one month and a half), but there are two-week breaks in mid-fall, around Christmas, mid-winter, and around but not necessarily at Easter. Two weeks is great, because it allows for a real re-charge. People can travel if they want, even to far-away places, and not have to worry about cramming it all in and jet lag. There is a system of subsidized childcare for parents who work. So it's not year-round school, but the calendar is more evenly broken up. [/quote]
