When is Spring Break in New Orleans and Mobile?

Does anyone know when spring break is for local school in New Orleans and Mobile? I am considering a 5 day cruise during the week of April 12th and want to take the route that will have less spring breakers (both college and high school).

Since I work for the Mobile County School System, I can tell you that locally Spring break is April 14 thru April April 20 2008.

 

As a contractor to HUD for their single family foreclosure homes program, I can tell you that vandalism to our vacant properties will skyrocket April 14 thru April 20, 2008. :mad:

Louisiana doesn't have "Spring Break"- We get off for Mardi Gras then we have a week for Easter- Most people call it Spring Break however we do not since it's two seperate occasions. We do things different over here- You will notice we have Parishes not Counties:rolleyes:

This is true, the dates I gave you is for Easter week and that has allways been known as spring break here.

I think you will see spring breakers from mid march through all of April.

Michigan is April 4-13 2008, and we leave Michigan for warmer waters!!

This website will tell you college spring breaks...we used it to plan a cruise for our honeymoon....it helped out a LOT! We did not want to be around 1000 college kids on our honeymoon.

This website seems to list 2007 College Spring Break dates. Anyone know anywhere I can look up the 2008 dates?
