Hi, can anyone tell me when the school holiday s are for easter in the us. are they the same as in the uk i.e. monday the 2nd april until friday 13th april inclusive. i am going to florida on 15th april as i was told that the school holiday s for easter are the same over there as in the uk, however i have now been told that the easter holiday in the us starts on monday 16th april. can anybody please clarify? thanks robbie, i assumed it was the same as here so booked the holiday and when i booked the theme park tickets (from a company based in the uk) they confirmed that it was a nice time to go as it was after the easter holiday s in the us . then on a florida forum on the internet, they said that the easter holiday s in the us start on 16th april. so confusing!

The spring/easter holidays in the u.s. can be confusing, as it is different not only from state to state, but sometimes even within a state. most schools in the u.s. have what is called a "spring break" rather than easter break, and for most is in late march. however, some schools .. again hard telling which ones, have their spring break in april. one of the schools my son attended had a break in february then another one in mid-april.so, in short, it is kind of hard to say without checking with various school districts and/or state educational websites. also, what is spring break for elementary and secondary schools is generally not the same time as spring break for colleges and universities.as you may have noted in what i have said .. the spring break in the u.s. is not at all associated with when easter is..
