The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) last week announced it would significantly cut its winter break—a move that has the district’s teachers union crying foul.

The district March 27 announced plans to shorten its three-week winter break—which typically takes place from mid-December to the first week of January—to two-and-a-half weeks in the upcoming 2023–24 school year. For the 2024–25 and 2025–26 school years, the winter break will be cut to two weeks.
