I think that schools should not be year round. I think this because it will cause more problems than help us; there are more cons than pros. The benefits of having school year round are probably that you won't have a two month gap in summer so you won't for get what you learned. Also you will get to see your friends more frequently. The cons of having school year round are that it wil change our lifestyle. We go to school from September to June, we have breaks in between and a couple of P.A. days. Families are already accustomed to this, if they want to go on vacation they know the exact times their children don't have school. Also in summer kids have recreational activities and clubs/camps they join, this will be taken away if we have school year round. Another example to add is that in summer kids want to do nothing and sleep in but they have to wake up early if schools is year round.
Personally, I think that schools should not be year round because it's less stressful and you get two months off. Plus I really don't want to see everyone throughout the whole year. It would be less stressful because you have two full months off to think about things other than, when an assignment is due, what to study for on a test or how to do an arduous math equation. I say I don't want to see everyone because I think that ten months is enough.
What I think the benefits of a full year of school would be that I won't forget what I learnt and I won't have to do drudging chores all summer long. I say this because since every month you are going to school without a two month gap you definitely won't forget anything. I wouldn't have to do chores because I won't be at home most of the time. Every time I have a day off my mom makes me do stodgy house work; I have to clean the rooms, vacuum the carpets and do the dishes.
Some rules that would have to be changed to make it work is that we cannot have summer school for kids who need extensive help. Also you will be going to school in July and August so your family vacation time will be cut short. Also since the breaks are going to be spaced out more, you will have to change how many days of school we will be having for one week. So instead of having 5 days of school and 2 days for the weekend, we can have 4 days of school and 3 for the weekend.
The limitations to a full year of school would be that we have to have not mare than 4 days of school per week, in the summer at least 2 weeks off for vacation and the students have to be present at school for most of the time in summer because of their not what's the point of there being any school in summer?
