I have always thought about having build season be in November and December including the holidays, but it would be incredibly difficult for teams who are school based; some schools cannot meet if their school is closed.

I would love to see:
Build in Nov/Dec. Districts in January/February. Regionals and Regional Championships in February/March. Worlds in April with more than 2 weeks to get airline tickets.

We can't go into May for many reasons, including AP testing.
