My school has been thinking about having year round school. The vacations and breaks are longer, but there is no summer. You still have the same amount of school days but year round. They want to do this so kids don't "Forget things over the summer" and when one grade is over, it's on to the next a week later.
What do you think? |

The idea came from Olden Times, where kids had to work on their farms during the summer. The idea of the summer vacation is clearly spelled out in the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, our first real Federal educational charter.
