Tell Us: Vacations on Winter Break?

With school calendar changes, some parents consider sticking with their vacation plans.

Thanks to problems related to Hurricane Sandy and the recent blizzard, school districts have cut into vacation time.

Students in Commack will be in school all week. Neighboring districts have Monday off including South Huntington and Hauppauge.

Some parents are objecting and talking about taking their children out of class so they can go on long-planned vacations.
