For me, school didn't get out until I graduated from college...and then I started working every day.
My nephew has summer school this year, whew! Keeps him out of trouble.
My favorite last day in school was grade 8. I was bad at softball, and everybody knew it. The school jock, Todd, hit the ball in my direction and I backed up slowly, afraid of catching it (yeah, I was one of those guys). I held my glove up in the air and -whack!- I caught it!

Then the bell rang!

I'll always remember that.
Remember, while school is out, be kind and respectful. Don't graze out onto a sidewalk and glare at the rush hour traffic, looking at the people like: You have to stop for me and I can take just as long as I want because I'm a kid! Remember, someone might be on their way to a doctor's appointment or might have an emergency we just don't understand.
Just a few thoughts...have a good vacation (when it does roll around)!
