It is formally known as "Winter Break" (as opposed to "Holiday Break" which happens around Christmas, and "Spring Break" which happens around Easter). Basically, in wealthy districts (like the ones next door to mine), parents would take their kids out at various times during January and February to go skiing. This was the solution to that problem. It usually falls the week of Presidents Day, since everybody has that Monday off anyway.
I actually know a family in our district who goes skiing during this week, but they have relatives that live at Lake Tahoe.
As for me, I wouldn't go skiing even if I could afford it. I suppose some year we could go to Southern California, but most years this is a busy time for brian1789, this year especially.
