The answer is different when you are in the district system. Our first year in districts we took five days out of school for two district events and district champs. This doesn't count load in days which meant some mentors had to leave 3x slightly early to make it. We are also pretty centrally located in the region but for many teams, load in day at a regional or district means a full day of travel so that adds on another three days.

Then Champs takes another 3-6 days depending on how you travel. In 2014 it added another 5 days to the out of school/no work days.

Its a whole different story when you bump from 1-2 events before Champs to 3-5.
