We do the same thing Brad,Pull our 8 year old out of school to ski )..so worth it to ski without lineups. They dont seem to mind here in Canada (well BC &Alberta anyway) if the kids miss school for skiing.
Infact they HAVE to take ski lessons in grade 5 here for school gym class..they haul the kids up to the mountain and give them lessons.
Best day skiing.....

Update,
Well we just spent the last 3 days skiing, (Trent, Me, My boss and a couple other friends) My boss got a condo and we skied Fri, Sat and Sun. The best 3 days of skiing I have ever had and probably, as Trent (my son) said, the best 3 days of our lives. I don't mean to go on about my son too much, but sorry, I can't hold it in. Today, his 4th day skiing, he skied 4 Black diamond runs. He didn't tentatively edge down them either, he took them on, cut a few nice turns and rode out to the bottom. I was, and still am, speechless. He made very nice turns on a steep mogul filled run and seemed to do it with more confidence than I sometimes have. Watching him take to skiing so well and when he said these had been the best 3 days of his life, I really have no words to convey how I feel.
