Here is a calendar for December 2012.

Fairfax County Public Schools' Christmas Break is 12/24-1/1. What should our Christmas break be next year?

Should Co-op meet Thurs. 12/20 and then take off the next two weeks and not come back until Tues. 1/8 and Thurs. 1/10?

 Or

Should Co-op meet Thursday 12/13 and Tuesday 12/18 and then take off 12/20-1/2 and resume on Thursday 1/3?

Or

Should Co-op meet Thursday 12/20 and then take two Tuesdays off (12/25 and 1/1) but only one Thursday off (12/27) and come back and meet on Thursday 1/3?

All three scenarios have their issues (in my opinion).

The first scenario is kind of weird because we don't come back to Co-op until the 8th (Tues.) and the 10th (Thurs.) of January and that seems really late. The second scenario is kind of weird because we end up doing these "half-weeks" at Co-op (meet Tues. and not Thursday and then meet Thursday and not Tuesday) and we kind of lose a weekend in the break. The third scenario is kind of weird because it's a shorter break.

So...there you go! Would love to know your thoughts. Thanks!
