[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes! Everyone pulls their kids out at some point for travel. We have (twice for Disney and Disney cruise, and many other times for a day here or there). Despite what some people will say, there won't be any fallout. Kids miss school for travel all the time. This simply isn't an issue at all.[/quote] My parents never did that once growing up, travel revolved around holidays/scheduled school breaks. The longest time I had "off" was 4th grade because of chicken pox (this was well before the vaccine came out). [/quote] I'm sorry. You missed out. The fact is that your kid really won't miss much in elementary school. Our kids received packets of worksheets the last time we pulled them out (3rd and 5th grades). They did the packets on the plane and on Sunday night. I can't imagine a first grader would miss anything. When we pulled out our oldest in K for disney, the teacher told us to have fun. That was it. What are you worried about, OP? Do your friends at school not travel? Families at our school travel all the time...especially the divorced couples who pull their kids out for multiple family trips. You won't get in trouble, the teacher won't care, and your kid really won't miss much. [/quote]
