Have you driven down from CT before? If so I'd love to hear your tips and opinions. Somebody told me (going south not necessarily FL) they always leave CT around 7p and drive til 3-4a to get past DC. Then sleep (some) and continue on. Thinking about trying this and then getting to within a few hours (2-5) the next day and then getting a good nights rest. I may be hauling by myself. My FiL may come another time as we hope to get AP and make it down to MNSSHP while my DD is still into it. My DW may have PTO issues so I may just fly her and DD down on 6/22. We will all drive home together and there will be 2 other families heading back with us.
Wish I had the short drive. I am planning to arrive on June 10 for 14 days. I will be leaving out of Central California. I am planning two and a half long days to San Antonio, stop for the day and visit the Alamo. Then two more days and get within about 100 to 150 miles of the fort. I will take a day off and rest up before we arrive nice and early on the June 10. Looks like I will be driving mostly US 10 all the way across the country but have not finalized the plan. It will be a 5 week trip that will include another week or so in and around Florida and then a stop at Graceland for my wife and then 2000 miles home. Figuring the trip will be about 7500 miles.

I think it varies from state to state or district to district.I wonder if the last day date is town by town law
I think it varies from state to state or district to district.
My DS' school has a scheduled "last day", May 20th- "unless snow days are used; June 1, 2016, if ALL snow days used
(One day of attendance ADDED for each snow day taken to a maximum of 7)"
Illinois only requires schools to make up 7 snow days (up from 5 last year). And calling them "snow" days is a bit of a misnomer. Last year, they were off 3 days because it was cold. (Wind chills below 0). I said "put on a coat!"
