I forgot to mention that our district requires us to fill out a triple-carbon vacation absence request. On the request, we need to tell them how many days the kids will be gone, the reason for the trip, and the educational benefits of the trip. The vacation is not approved until the principal signs it and returns it to the parent.
The first time we took my oldest out for Disney, in 2002, I wrote this big long dissertation about the educational benefits of Disney and uninterrupted family time. The last 3 trips, however, I've simply stated "family vacation" for reason, and "many in Epcot and Animal Kingdom" for educational benefits. Honestly, I felt like writing "none of your business", but I didn't think that would go over very well. LOL.

I swore we never would but now we have.
We took my daughter out of PreK in Dec 05 for 3 days and out of Kindergarten in Sept. 06 for 6 days.
Hi,
I have a friend who takes their children out of school for a week every year to go to Disney. I think that next time we go I will do the same, we went in June last year and it was packed. When they go it isn't as busy and they can see and do more. We live in Texas and they don't send any bills, but I am an education student and I am pretty sure that the school dosen't get paid if the children arn't there, but not 100%.
