[quote=Anonymous]We always pulled out kids out when in elementary, now out twins are in middle school and one just got.accepted into TJ. There is just wayyy too much school to miss. I had absolutely no issues pulling them a good 2 weeks and then a few days here and there. Depending on where we were going we pulled them because A. We don't like traveling with crowds, and B it was sometimes a seasonal thing. We did a Safari in Kenya and September was the best time for migration viewing and we went for 3 weeks, a week of that pushed into the first week of school. We also like to ski in Utah and once again didnt want to deal with the hoards over Christmas. Considering both of my kids have straight As, one headed to TJ next Fall, and both way above average students, it hasn't impacted them negatively. They've had some amazing trips. [/quote]
