He mid-year school break It is expected by some families to schedule a break.
The ideal is to plan rest days and optimize unforeseen expenses. It is necessary to decide the places to visit, set the dates and estimate the costs.
The Ministry of Education, in its annual program, set the rest dates for a few weeks, as follows:
Public sector — Ministerial Agreement No. 4817-2025
From Wednesday, June 24 to Tuesday, June 30, 2026, will be the mid-year break for students and teachers.
Private sector, by cooperative and municipal — Ministerial Agreement No. 4818-2025
From Wednesday, June 24 to Tuesday, June 30, 2026 will be the mid-year break.
This year’s break will coincide in part with the Soccer World Cupwhich will begin on Thursday, June 11 and conclude on Sunday, July 19, 2026.

Aches, pains, and symptoms indicate that something is not right. Doctors sometimes say that stress can contribute to many of these health problems, such as high blood pressure, heart disease, obesity, and diabetes.
Poorly controlled stress affects in multiple ways: for the body it can represent a headache; On an emotional level, you may feel anxious; and in behavior, motivating people to overeat or eat less than what is recommended, just to give a few examples.
A large number of situations associated with stress could be listed, among which are fatigue, feeling overwhelmed, falling into drugs, alcoholism, isolation, upset stomach, sadness and depression.
