Do teachers get Winter Break off too?

Many teachers I know are working during winter break, even though their school is shut down (in order to save energy.)

They are catching up on grading, writing letters of recommendation for students who requested them at the last minute before vacation, and preparing for their January classes.

Many teachers I know are passionate about their work, and they don’t stop working because the building are closed and the students are not there.
