My kids are in 2nd and 6th and missed a week for our trip at the end of January. My 6th grader is a good student, and I wouldn't have done it if he wasn't. He was easily able to keep up with the assignments that his teacher wanted him to have upon his return. He was able to most of it in advance, only had a little to do while we were actually on the vacation, and we returned home on a Saturday so he'd have all day Sunday for any additional work he needed to do. He was all caught up and on track with his classmates within a day or two.
I will add the note that my kids are in private school so I think unexcused absences are handled differently than in the public school system.
I like the idea mentioned above about booking both and canceling one when you see how her school year is going.
