... according to www.edu.gov.on.ca/eng/general/list/calendar/holidaye.html the Canadian/Canadien mid-winter school holidaye is scheduled for March 12-16 on the calendar .... with 194 school days minimum required by regulation ..... aye! oui! ... with 195 scheduled for this 2017-2018 Canada school year.

So, how does the Province of Ontario and all Canada fit in 15-days, which is three weeks time, more school days than New Hampshire? Instead of having both February and April vacations, Canada gets just one week off in March, plus apparently two weeks less in August to total out at 195-Canada vs 180-New Hampshire.

... and, the State of New Hampshire requires no fewer than 180 days.... so NH school age students have 10 more days to help with the snowmobile trail clearing chores in August as opposed to Canada...... New Hampshire thinks of everything!

Presidents’ Day is always the third Monday in February. Mass school vacation week always encompasses Presidents Day. How is this a change? Just wondering....

School boards set their calendars nearly a year in advance. This should be no surprise to anybody. Why the red, boldface supersize? Are you angry about the calendar?

Thanks George! I am glad he noted this because the 2 weeks that are most important for the Moultonboro snowmobile club are the NH and MA school vacation weeks. I used to know the schedule... before my kids grew up in the blink of an eye!
