I have always taken my children out in the past, but haven't since 2009 cruise.
This past Dec we went for a full week to Disney.
Normally my kids have great attendance, but go figure DD13 was sick 3x b4 we even left!
AND, she is very serious about her school work, and we had to listen to her panic about not understanding some of her homework, and her complete unraveling thinking her grades were going to suffer, etc...never again!!
All turned out fine, her report card came home yesterday, straight As with a few A+, as we knew she would have, but she's too much of a perfectionist to go thru it again.
Next trip, I'll try to plan it over days they have off for conferences, and maybe pull them for 2 days.
Elementary, I wouldn't be too worried, DS11 is in 5th grade and also has fantastic grades, but I will say his math test the week after we got back was his worse test ever...
I'm returning for a quick MNSSHP trip, and I decided to not pull the older ones for this trip, just me and DS2 and my oldest DD19..
