I’m not sure if someone said precisely this, but generally, In town yeshivas, there is a large bein hazmanim sukkos and Pesach time (usually closer to a month), and they don’t have winter break, maybe just an off shabbos. But the elementary schools and some high schools have a winter break from let’s say Wednesday-Monday, but guess what, Pesach break starts two days before bedikas chometz and ends the day after isru Chag. I have been in numerous schools as a kid and this is the case. Also, there is nothing like a good rejuvenation to get the kid more excited about coming back to a fresh start. Some quality time to spend with family, carefree and stress free. Obviously there should be a structure and not too long of a break. But what’s wrong with some refreshment?
