Do any schools' spring breaks happen after Easter this year?

Trying to figure out if going to WDW around April 15th would be a good idea. I'm the kind of guy who likes to go to WDW when I can have 5 minute waits everywhere.

Massachusetts and other New England schools have that week off for their spring break.

I can't tell you whether it is a good idea or not but a lot of northeast schools have spring break starting April 15 this year

 

[yeaitspootie]

Wow thanks for the quick response Denise.

So you're saying the week of the 15th is out, what about the next week around the 23rd?

 

[yeaitspootie]

Thanks Alli

Massachusetts has that for spring break week. I believe NH is the week after. It won't be as crazy crowded as it is now but now a low crowd week either.

 

[3girls4me05]

I think NH may have the following week off. Let me check

Yes, just checked Concord, NH calendar and that is the week NH has off for April break

No local schools will be on spring break- April 15 is the start of the FCAT (Florida's state test)

Ouch, okay. Thanks a lot, 3girls.

Maybe The last week of April/first of May would be fine? Lol, just pulling straws now.

We live in NY state above Albany and up here break is from 3/29-4/7. So everyone should be back at school here for the 15th.

Here on Long Island, we have the upcoming week off. Actually, we lost tomorrow because of Sandy and Nemo. Our break starts this Tuesday. We go back the day after Easter and that is it until Memorial Day.

We have this Thursday, Good Friday, and the first week of April off here in Michigan.

 

[yeaitspootie]

Thanks everybody!

Hopefully more people will chime in as the night goes on.

April 29-May 3 is probably your safest best. Crowd predictions are low that week.

We're in Michigan also and we have this Friday and the first week of April off for Spring Break.

I'm in NC and we always have the week after Easter off. Not all NC schools do but alot

The majority of the country will be done with Spring Break after the week following Easter. There will be exceptions, there always are, but the majority will be done.
As a PP said, Florida schools will not be out and kids 3rd grade and up will not be visiting because they will be taking the mandatory state tests in April, and I expect many other states have similar situations. Then in May there are IB and AP tests for high schoolers. Starting the last week of May schools will start letting out for the summer.
So in summary: starting with the third week in April and going to the last week in May you should expect light crowds, decent weather and some pretty good discounts on rooms.
That is why we are heading down April 19-22

RI schools are out that week (15th-19th) and that is why we are heading down that week But from TP crowd calender it looks like it won't be too crowded.

I would think the last week in April heading in to May would be a fantastic week with low crowds. Enjoy!
