Should schools be in session year-round?
I recently read in the paper (Yes, we still have a local newspaper) that a few schools would be implementing a year-round schedule. The move was met with opposition from parents who wanted to keep the current schedule (12 week summer break).
This got me thinking. How many people actually support a year-round schedule for schools? And what better way to find out than to poll the Flood?
So, should schools be in session year-round?
CLARIFICATION: There would still be breaks with the year-round schedule, just more evenly spread out.

5 RepliesThat's horrible. It doesn't just affect students and teachers but the entire country. Summer break is a huge deal for everyone here, maybe even extending out. Imagine how it affects the economy [b]everywhere[/b] without Summer Break. Not to mention it'll lower morale. Nonstop school? Are you kidding me? I'm not even in it anymore. That's a horrible idea that affects everybody. Not to mention you spend the first 16-18 years still in what could potentially be called an institution. Being in a building 7 hours a day doesn't make a person, it just educates them. It's not more important than creating a personality. Harder to do with only 2 days off a week. Nobody goes anywhere, don't see anything for the first 17 years because they had school and never have a change to leave. Who would you be, honestly if school was in session year-round? I think that's the real question.
