I would definitely choose the April 11th date if those are your only options. There is a noticable reduction in crowd levels one week past Easter. If you have to go during the busier time just make sure to get to the parks early, use the fast passes and take an afternoon break when the parks get super busy. Hope you have a great trip!!!

My school district is off for Spring Break starting April 11th. The other districts in my area are off starting the 14th. I know there was a poll a while ago about when spring breaks are this coming school year. If you can find the thread it might give you a good idea of when schools are out. That being said I have been to WDW late in April when Easter was in March. The crowds were manageable, but the parks were not empty by any means.

Unfortunately, both times will be busy. The entire month of April is busy with spring breakers! Either way, just make sure you have ADR's and plan, plan, plan. You'll be fine and have a great time either way. Just expect crowds and plan accordingly.

Enjoy!
