Up here in NJ we start after Labor day and go until almost the end of June. I grew up in NY and it was that way since I was a kid in the 1970s. We have a whole family trip to fit in before school starts.

Sept 6th, not looking forward to it, will squeeze every last drop of summer at home with the kids first. I will be at the lake grilling burgers, drinking beer the day before thinking all day, I cannot BELIEVE it's a school night!

Here at my house we will start back after Labor day. I homeschool and we take breaks throughout the year and all my kids do school project all through the summer. I don't like the backslide that happens during the summer so the activities keep them up on the basics.

Day after Labor Day. School ended on June 18th or something (can't remember, it seems like AGES ago). I feel like there's still so much summer fun we need to have before school starts. I'm pretty sure the kids feel the same way...

My kids start next Tuesday, while my nephews in Chicago don't start until after Labor Day. My kids got out of school June 7 due to 2 snow days added on from our wonderful February snowfall. My kids are actually a bit excited about going back and the routine.
