How long are your children off from school for Pesach?

Out of curiousity, how long is your children's pesach break? Ours are off after Monday (so 5days before), school resumes Tuesday after Pesach (3 days after). Another friend is complaining they're off 3.5weeks in total, 1.5weeks before and 1week after

They are off starting Thursday and start school Monday after peasach so only two days not actually peasach.

My kids usually have school a half a day erev pesach and school chol hamoed. When we first moved here, it was weird, but now it's wonderful Smile

. This year since it's a bunch of holidays this week, they have off this Monday, Thursday, and Friday.

My kids have off from Tuesday before and resume Tuesday after. Its pretty typical schedule for most schools here, so many people make pre-pesach day camps if u need.

My girls got out last Tuesday and go back the Monday after Pesach, so three week off.

my kids are off all year, we homeschool! I bet this time of year, with all your kids home, you are wondering if I'm nuts. well, I wonder that all year..... Smile

From 5 Nissan to the day after Isru Chag. (Misrad haChinuch schedule.) So 8 school days before and one school day after, and everything in between.

Never the mind the children. My DH has a month of Bain HaZmanim, Im going to have a nervous breakdown

My older kids' last day before Pesach is tomorrow, my younger one's last day before Pesach is Tuesday. They all start on Wednesday after Pesach. This happens to work out well for us since we will be getting back from the US iy"h on Tuesday, but I imagine that the parents who are staying home are none too happy about it.
