Do kids ever go to school anymore? Back when I walked uphill both ways barefoot on the snow, we never got so much as a fall break! </p> <p>Here the public schools were closed Monday only. My husband had to work all day and my school was still open, so I worked the evening. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-off-for-presidents-week/page/2#post-2463052 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 11:55:01 +0000 looch 2463052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Public schools are closed for February Recess. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-off-for-presidents-week/page/2#post-2463048 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 11:52:43 +0000 Adira 2463048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The public schools are closed for February Break (there's also April Break), but our daycare was only closed President's Day and is open the rest of the week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-your-kids-off-for-presidents-week/page/2#post-2463020 Tue, 16 Feb 2016 11:37:15 +0000 daniellemybelle 2463020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Schools here closed yesterday and today but I don't think all week.

Our schools are closed on Monday, but they are open the rest of the week.
