<p>I am just really upset right now...I have to go to school until Friday December 23rd. It feels so much like punishment. I heard that my school division will be the only one having classes on Friday in the whole state (Virginia)...I have no idea if it is true. Still, it sounds right. </p>
<p>Anyway, when did you guys get off for Holiday break and how long are you off??? I heard some areas are off for like 3 weeks!!! If this is true then I feel so screwed...</p>
<p>I will be off from December 23rd- Jan 2. Technically I have 6 days off, not including weekends. The reasoning behind this...Christmas fell on a weekend.</p>
<p>I got school on friday, full day but we have student run activites for the majority of the day, then ill break starts so from 24-2nd or 3rd im on break</p>
<p>Our break starts Thursday, but to me that means skipping last period on thursday, and doing shopping on friday. The next two days are just movies, except for Calc class, that guy doesnt have any fun.</p>
<p>ugh i like that this is called when Did everyone get out and my last day is friday... i love public school.
ps we Def dont call it holiday break ever.</p>
<p>last Friday - the day was such a waste. Two hour delay so half hour classes and I had gotten into Stanford the night before...I might as well have not been there - we played with liquid nitrogen in AP Physics (the delay caused her to postpone our test until after break), ate donuts during AP Lit, and played chess during AP calc (he runs the club). Such a great day.</p>
<p>It differed for everyone at my school, depending on whether you had exams or not...but the last OFFICIAL day of school was the 16th of December...</p>
<p>I personally got out of school on the 13th of December. I had late arrival on that day (sleeping in time), because I only had to take one exam, and it wasn't the first period exam. I left right after the exam, got to go home around 10:00, and didn't have to go in for the rest of the week. I have to go back to school on the 3rd of January, though. (to make up the days of school we had off due to Hurricane Rita)</p>
<p>It's nice I guess, but I would have rather gotten out later because I haven't really had much to do. Usually, it would be nice to have all the extra time to shop, but it doesn't really matter since Chanukah starts so late this year:( I guess getting out early is one of the perks of the quarter system though!</p>
