WIth the "year round" schedule, we would have the same amount of vacation time, it would just be spread out at different times of the year. It would mean a week at Thanksgiving, and extra week during the Winter Break, an extra week for March Break and another week break in the spring, followed by a month off in the summer....There are many advantages and disadvantages of this schedule. It is time to weigh in...
Should schools adopt a year round schedule? Let us know what you think! P.S - I won't read the comments to the class :)

i think no because in the summer vacation, we could review on what we learned in the previous year. We also get to spend more time with our familly if we want to go some place far like india for a long time without missing school time. You would still get a full education.

no i dont think they should because if they do then the people tha save money to go on a 2 month vacation wouldnt be able to do that anymore because there kids would be at school so i agree with josh

Never again i agree wih practically everyone, simply because when u go on vacation its rly rly annoyong to know that you have to go bak home in like 5 days for example and you would have to go to school. Also, when you want to go on vacation, depending on where you're going, you'd have to take several long flights to get to for example, india, middle east, etc... And it wouldnt really be practical to have a bunch of longer breaks during the year because its just fine the way it is right now, yes i admit that i cant wait for a break, but its not that far spaced the difference of each break would be like 2-3 months, plus the weedends so its ok, and besides most people would rather have one really long break in the summer, rather than having shorter ones instead. Just to wrap this up, this plan i think is a FAIL

I posted before but it no work so im going to try AGAIN! I think... school should be yearly. I kinda wanna say this cuz imma leader not a follower!!! So i no follow what other people say which is NO. I think school should be yearly because there's less time in between. Im always hoping for a vacation a BREAK from all the school. Not too long, so that i get bored like the 2 month we have now. Just several medium vacation instead of HUGE GINORMOUS GIGANTIC ONE!!!!!!

i think that this is a stupid idea because they are trying to get us in school 24/7. its dumb because we dont get a chance to realx after we go on vacation and we will have homework over all of our breaks because they are shorter but then we will be overwhelmed and be caused not t try hard because there is so much. also we would be stressed out which could lead to depression... :P ;.(

No , i think that this is a stupid idea because 1 month is not enough for us in the summer . If we want to go on a trip far away , then we could only go for like 1 month when we could be going for 2 months . Summer is the only time that kids get to have fun for 2 months . Whoever got this idea is pretty stupid . and i agree with Safa cuz they already made nutrition breaks and we cant see our friends in other grades and then now they want to make school year round ? Its like they want us to leave school

I really don't agree with the idea of Year Round Schooling! Firstly, many families send their children to summer camps. With this system, the useful summer programs, such as youth camps, are at risk. Secondly, parents who have 2 children, one following the traditional school year system and the other studying according to the year-round education system will find it a bit difficult to co-ordinate their vacations. I also think that its not fair for the teachers. They will have to pack up for summer and then set up everything 3 weeks later. It may also effect the the utilities used around school for example: if the school stays open more electricity will be used as a result the maintenance cost will increase and that may also effect the Budget the school runs on!

Hey guys, I think that it is a bad idea because well, the extra weeks for march break and winter break is is but it gets boring because it is cold outside and i think that the longer summer would be better because you can go on longer vacations and it is nice outside.
