Summer Break is better than spring break. Let me explain why. Summer break is a lot longer. You get 2 whole months out of school instead of 2 weeks. The pool is also open in the summer. In spring time it is not. The weather is hotter in the summer and you get to wear summer clothing. It rains a lot in spring and it's a bit windy.
