Nope. Unlike the US, in Japan school runs year round. The school year ends in the spring just like the US, but the next year starts up right away after only a realativly short break and runs through summer.
That's why in anime, you always see the cherry blossoms in bloom when people are starting a new school year. Cherry blossoms bloom in the spring.

I'm still a bit ambivalent about the whole "dissapearing for a year" thing, so I am not totally sure how I rate this ep yet. To me, the main reason for her to have left would be to have reconciled with her parrents, but we get no real
confirmation that she actually did. The meeting of the two at the very end, after their separation, was nice even if it was a bit quick.

I totally agree here, and these were to me the best parts of the ep. Very toughing and yet somehow still in character for both of them.
