The school year, which begins in April, typically breaks for a month and a half from Mid-July through August, although the actual dates will vary by school district. A few districts close in mid-June through July, while others do not close at all for such a long period. Usually through this time students are charged with writing several papers on their desired subject in this time.

Meanwhile, private schools are nearly unknown.

I’m mostly here for... something to do, I suppose.

Of course we let the kids have the summer off. The Teacher's Union would pitch a fit otherwise.

there is the 3-month long summer vacation and the 1-week long christmas and easter vacations
The United Federated Districts of Hevora. Or Savedland, as it is often hideously anglicized...

We are a large, free, powerful and beautiful country with a very long history that stretches back thousands upon thousands of years.

We are a union of many nations and cultures. The most dominant and shared by almost everyone is that of the Hevoran (Savedlish) People. It has its roots lying in an ancient creole culture that emerged from extensive contact between a bronze age hellenic and norse civilization which evolved convergeantly on an fictional, alternate universe Earth.

Bit weird, I know. But we're a lovely culture if you care enough to get to know us! :D

Both private and state schools have three terms seperated by 3 week Christmas and Easter holidays and a 7 week summer holiday. Each term is split into two by a week-long half-term holiday.

It's how kids in Goltzborg spell "school", I'd guess.

He likes to do lame puns like this in all his thread titles, and I find it a bit annoying TBH, but perhaps that's really because like half his posts are new threads...
