ב"ה, א' סיון, תשט"ו ברוקלין.
The Rebbe writes that it is more important for students to be present in yeshiva during the end of Elul and the Ten Days of Teshuvah than in Av, but emphasizes that vacation should not be given both in Av and during Elul and the Ten Days of Teshuvah.

הנהלת ישיבת תומכי תמימים אשר בלוד
ד' עליהם יחיו

שלום וברכה!

... במ"ש אודות חופש בימי הקיץ, הנה מובן שיותר נוגע שיהיו התלמידים בכותלי הישיבה בשילהי אלול ובעשי"ת מאשר בחדש אב, אבל מובן ג"כ שאין ליתן חופש גם באב גם באלול ועשי"ת.

בברכה לקבלת התורה בשמחה ובפנימיות.

Regarding what you wrote about vacation during the summer months: it is understood that it is more important for the students to be within the walls of the yeshiva at the end of Elul and during the Ten Days of Teshuvah than during the month of Av. However, it is also understood that vacation should not be given both in Av and also in Elul and the Ten Days of Teshuvah.


Summary

The Rebbe teaches that yeshiva attendance is especially crucial at the end of Elul and during the Ten Days of Teshuvah, more so than in Av. Careful scheduling ensures students are present for these spiritually significant times.
