Tell Us: Vacations on Winter Break?

Thanks to problems related to Hurricane Sandy and the recent blizzard, school districts have cut into vacation time.

Students in both Huntington and South Huntington will be in school most of the week, though those in the latter district will have Monday off. Huntington district students could well lose another vacation day in March because of the need to meet state rules on classroom days.

But some parents are objecting and talking about taking their children out of class so they can go on long-planned vacations.

What are you doing? Are you sticking with the school calendar? And do you think classes will be affected if many kids are absent?

Please tell us in the comments.
