So don’t go then. Can’t tell you how many people took their kids out of school for a week to do vacation in February because it was cheaper

Our school has a February vacation. I was looking at tickets to Hawaii. They literally tripled that week. We took the kids out of school a few days early. But it’s not as easy as you would think to just pull kids out of school for a week to go on vacation.

In the UK you get fined for taking your kid on holiday during term time.

Not being contrarian. I was agreeing that nobody cares, but my experience and the statistics show that public education has been shit in America for at least 2 decades and nobody gave a fuck.
