Do you favor year-round schools?

Hello nicki

i think if you have school work during the summer, your brain keeps going and you excel in the next year!!

i totally agree with this comment because students' grades are suffring, so we need more hours in to review. i do believe that school should start at 9:00 am and end at 5:00 pm. your brain developes more when you are well rested and have time for your body to wake up. i think that all schools should have at least 1 hour added on to their school day.

yeah but the breaks are like 15 days long and thats nothing compared to a long summer break that gives us time to be kids(or adults)

yeah im writing on essay on it 2 it does suck

I am to. It sucks cuz i cant find any resources

It is not better for the kids to go to year round schools. Yeah we might get bored over the summer after awhile, but we always find stuff to do, and that's a lot better than going to school. Plus, if we went to year round schools, we would be even more bored because then we would have to sit at school for the whole year and have broken up vacations instead of a full vacation. It's bad enough we already have to go to school for seven hours a day, five days a week, for ten months of the year. I seriously see the people at school more than my family at home. Just think what it would be like if we went to year round school. I think it would be even worse. Also with year round school, kids are robbed of free time. They always have school and homework over the summer, they never get a break before they have to go to the next grade, and they don't usually get to go to summer camp. It would also be confusing to the parents and students who were transitioning from regular schools to year round. All of the information I have found on year round schools talks about how the schools have different groups who are at school at different times of the year. This is confusing and unfair sometimes for families who have more than one student in the year round schools. There have been times when the students of one family are in different groups, so one student is always at school, and the family never gets to go on vacation at all. I think it is just way to confusing and not worth the hassle.

NO KIDING! and I'm doing a project on this too!

im writing an essay on this..... doesn't that suck?
