[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There's nothing in the regulations that say Winter break has to be two weeks.  It says that they will adjust the start/end date of the break to make sure there's not a week that has only one day of school in it.  Given that Christmas is on a Monday, we will probably be in school until Friday the 22nd and then return on Tuesday, January 2.  So a slightly shorter winter break this year.  And then each subsequent year it will get a day longer until we end up back with a Monday Christmas again.[/quote]

Nope rich mommies will NEVER let that happen. They need a two week vacation.[/quote]

At our school it’s the poor immigrants that need this long break and add on to it so they can home every few years. [/quote]

It's far more appropriate to base a calendar on absences such as long international travel than random, blatant religious holidays. Maybe winter break needs to be renamed to Family Vacation or something since many view these 2 weeks as Christian. Apparently a lot of these posters have not been to Tysons during the holiday season.[/quote]
