[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In many places, spring break is not tied to Easter, even in the deep south. I think parents here mostly want school closings tied to religious holidays so they can travel to be with family. In many places, that is really not so much a concern. [/quote] Here I think most people want to travel to family for spring break overseas and 1 week isn't long enough. They'd prefer cheaper tickets at a time separate from Easter. We are in VA with a higher Asian population and many take their kids out for 2 weeks straight every spring. School complains a lot, but isn't accommodating them, so it is what it is. I too would like to be able to take a longer vacation with kids. [/quote]
