Thanks to you both!
Now just hoping for that Oct. 5th week... any part of it would help![]()
Here's to hoping right along with you! Any discount would be supercalifragilistic!

Do they usually release the free dining & room only discounts at the same time or are they usually staggered? I really want a RO but feel like I should do the free dining on 7/29 in case that is the only offer available for October.
Add us to the list.
First time in years that free dining is not available our week (oct 4/5-12).
We have a ressie from 10-2 thru 10-10, went to school orientation last night, and vacations are unexcused absences from school now with an "F" given for missed work, so the idea of pulling our son out of school for 2 days is off the table now.
Will take anything we can get, if not it's offsite we go.
The school cannot give your child an "F" if they are absent from school. That's illegal and the school could never support that in a court of law. They can say that vacations are unexcused and that can count against your child at the end of the year. If your child misses too many days they can be held back but they cannot give an "F" if they are not there. To get a better understanding look closely at the school's attendance policy.

How is it illegal? We were told last year that work missed due to unexcused absences would not be allowed to be made up. Fortunately, DD's teachers gave her two tests the day before we left (we only missed the last day of the 9 weeks). Hoping for the same this year, but she is prepared to take the 0s if need be.
If a child is not in school they must be given the same number of days out to make up the work. For example most schools will not give work to take with you and your child will be responsible for the work when they return whether that work is the same work or different a example of the same concepts it is up to the teacher. Giving a child an "F" is unfair if they are out of school for two days no matter what the excuse is. What happens when a child is out for a stomach flu which doesn't require a doctor visit? My suspicion is that taking off for vacation happens a lot in your district and they are taking a hard stance against it but they can never back it up if they are challenged. I am a Principal.
Yes, there usually are black out dates for RO discounts. And you are correct that RO discounts are date specific, so any nights not included in the promo would be at rack rate.
In reading one of your previous posts. You said missed work cannot be made up. That is understandable but a child should be given an opportunity to make up graded assessments.
Come on RO discount for the first week of December!!!![]()
The is a room discount rumored to be coming out on Aug 1, possibly July 29 for Visa holders. No details on specific covered dates though.
