School is a year round thing. Ever hear of summer school?

My alma mater starts summer session today. Our cross town rival started their summer session on May 18

The local K-12 schools start summer today as well. A different K-12 district started their summer classes 2 weeks ago.

In my day Summer school was punishment if you didn't do well at regular school.

That would suck not to have summer break but for some I suspect it's normal. Does this mean there are larger breaks throughout the year?

Yes https://www.apple.com/shop/gift-cards

You can get new 2nd gen airpods on Amazon for $99, reselling you'll do worse than that, so I wouldn't complain. Idk a student without some form of airpods or similar. unfortunately I bought my new mac in march but happy to already have my computer

Nah, Apple checks the value of the gift card when you return the MacBook. If it's anything less than full value, you get that amount deducted from your return.

The only loophole so far is the AirPods one.

So in case you haven’t redeemed the gift card yet and want to return your Mac ,you’ll be refunded completely ? Aka max+ gift card?
