OK other Jersey moms...am I the only one starting to feel guilty because I'm taking DS out of 1st grade after only 10 days of school??? I felt no guilt when booking the trip...but now as the time is getting closer I'm afraid of what his teacher will think. I keep telling mself it's only 1st grade and it's better to do it inn the beginning of the year...right??

I'm a teacher and I NEVER was upset when parent's want to take their kids on a vacation to WDW. However, the beginning of the year, and especially 1st grade, is probably the MOST important time for your child to be in school. That's when the routines for the year are set and practiced and the children get to know each other and the teacher. However, now that the trip is set, go and enjoy. Just make sure that when you return you make sure to check and see what all your child missed. JMHO, I am sure others would disagree.

Besides, that......don't the rest of you know that Jersey week is in November when the whole public school system shuts down for 2 days for the teacher's convention?

We're in.. Sept 11th - 18th

Ds 2nd grade starts on the 6th. But our schools have the 13th and 14th off for Yom Kippor (sp?) so he isnt missing alot. Other DS goes to a handicapped school and the experience is more important for him..
We also am pulling them in Feb for a cruise.. Get it in while I can..
