    Happy Chinese New Year! Does anyone have off from school today? It seems like many districts in the area are off but I don't remember this occurring in previous years.

    Not anymore. I had the day off when I was at the bilingual immersion school, then we'd have a big afternoon celebration the next day. I read that New York made it an official school holiday.
    I, for one, miss Pulaski Day. Only in IL does General Casimir Pulaski get you a day out of school.

    Yes, my friend told me her kids had off but she did not since she works in a different district. I guess it's up to the schools if they want to have it off. My school does not do any of those holidays except for President's day where we have the whole week off.
