[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would be really curious to see a poll (not one of just the UMC DCUM posters) of how many in MoCo actually go away for a whole week at spring break and want to keep it that way.

My kids do camp that week. We take a vacation in the summer but can't afford multiple week long vacations all year long. A long weekend around Easter would be perfect rather than paying for camp for the whole week. As for empty offices - some people may currently take the time off rather than paying for child care. That does not mean that they WANT to take all that time off at that time of school were to keep going.

The people who seem to hate this the most appear to be those with enough money to burn on long spring break vacations. That is not the entire county. [/quote]

We don't vacation in the spring other than family holiday travel..but we really need the break.  No hw ior activities.  Start studying for ap tests..look at colleges.  It us a long slog from January to June with put a long break.  And of course we do not take extra vacations in the summer just because it is  longer.[/quote]
