the year is the signs in front of the schools. I go thru 2 school zones on the way to work and both have big signs calling this a "winter holiday" and come spring a "spring holiday" or "Spring break". There is no mention of Christmas or Easter. And there is nothing we can do about it. If we complain they ignore us.

I was able to single-handedly headed off with printed objections dropped in each teachers mailbox in the morning. Pretty soon here came the principal after me. He looked at me and whispered: "thank you". I retired shortly thereafter and no one stood in the way and Winter Break and Spring Break became the norm.
