    Default When is your spring break this year?

    When are you or your children off for spring break this year?

    We are going March 12th to the 17th and I know that's not during Easter break but I'm afraid that other parts of the country are going to be off during that time.

    Thanks for your help in advance!

    Hello NY. On Long Island we are off Feb 16-20 and then the week before Easter in April. The last 2 weeks of Feb thru the first week of April are Peak pricing...mostly I think due to college spring breaks. I think some of the southern schools might have some time off in March.

    Lets see what other posters have to say....

    2nd week of March here. We're off the 7th through the 15th.
    With Easter being late, I think early March should be OK. Your week will probably be a little busy, but from looking at some crowd calendars, definitely manageable.

    We don't have spring break, but DD's HS Music Dept is taking a trip to WDW during that time - specifically, March 10 - 15. A co-worker's son's baseball team is also traveling at that same. I'm expecting it to be a bit busy, especially if the reduced hours that are posted on the official website hold up.

    Easter break here in South Jersey is April 10-17.

    I wonder what area's break have the largest crowds at WDW? I was there last year for Jersey's and it seemed like 3/4 of the people in the parks where from NJ/NY.

    Default School Breaks for 2009

    We normally take advantage of our school break to visit the Disney "playground" and this year is our year to go (yes!!!). We will be visiting the week of March 15.
    We're always interested in getting feedback on when most school breaks are scheduled for the eastern U.S. as a means of anticipating the crowds.
    Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Most colleges are during the 1st few weeks of March. One of my twins has his spring break the 1st week of March. My 2 kids in middle school have their break in April in that week that leads up to Easter and I'm in eastern NC.

    Default When is Spring Break where you live?

    SInce so many people ask about crowds and spring break this time of year, I thought it may be good to have a thread like this. Where we can all post where we live and when the school spring break is in our area.

    I'll go first!

    I live in the Birmingham, Alabama area, and school spring breaks here are next week, March 16-20.

    Wow, it looks like the weather can't be much better for people who plan on going down then!

    Morristown's school district is closed April 6 - 10. The HS sports teams play through the week though so we'll be staying home.

    Just an FYI, I merged yours with this previous version of the same question just because I knew there were already a lot of responses here.

    Our Spring Break is April 13-17. It is usually this week in March but for some reason our district decided to change it to April. Last year, we actually had two weeks, one in March and one in April. That made no sense to me. Must not have to anyone else either because this year they went back to one week and moved it to April. They are already talking on the local news about the traffic getting heavy here with Spring Breakers heading to FL so just watch the speed limits and crazies. The law enforcement is out in droves watching the roads.
