Students are best served in a traditional school system. Just imagine what it would be like to have to go to school in the middle of what would be a traditional year round summer vacation. That is a reality for thousands of kids across the United States. This is why I believe that the traditional school system is more beneficial than a year round system. Year round schools have disruptive schedules, the day amounts end up being the same in year round and traditional school and, year round schools cost more to maintain and run year round.…
Some schools around the country are going to, or are already, year-round schools. I can see that this is beneficial to student, but I can also see that there are some things that don’t sound too appealing. While year-round schooling is good and all, it still has people that don't like it and wouldn’t use it. Year-round school is debated back and forth for a couple of reasons. There are nice things about it, and not so nice things about it. Some people like year-round school, while some people don’t.…

were satisfied with their child’s school experiences (Shields 9). For over 100 years, most schools have adhered to a traditional summer vacation schedule which stemmed from our primitive technological resources and advancements. However, as technological growth was made schooling throughout the year became more practical and thus the concept of a year-round schedule was introduced. With year-round schedules now becoming ever more prevalent and traditional schedules becoming slowly obsolete, a debate has sparked between the merits of the two. This debate has involved comparing the different advantages and disadvantages of the two schedules. While a traditional summer vacation may…
First of all, it is difficult to manage time for other activities. It is hard for students to be doing after school activities such as sports. Text 1 paragraph 4 states, “Many high schools don’t employ a year round calendar because of sports schedules. Teams want to be able to take summer jobs. If students are in school year round, they can’t have a summer…

Year round school can decrease the number of theft at school by having the building be occupied for all of the year (cde.ca.gov). “With less theft, the school would feel like a safer place to be in for students. Parents would feel better about sending their children to school if it is a friendlier place.” Year round school can stop some of the bullying and vandalism in schools (cde.ca.gov).With less vandalism and bullying, schools would be able to do more things and the school would feel safer. With less people who go to school who want to make the school environment worse, there would be a high school academic achievement average. Less theft, vandalism and bullying would make a healthier school environment and better academic…

When most student are asked about year-round school they think it means giving up their summer, but that’s not exactly right. Year-round school doesn’t necessarily mean giving up summer vacation. There are variety of calendars school districts follow. The current school year is based on an outdated agricultural model, when families need to use their children to help them with a harvest. Most families aren’t like that anymore. It’s time to update the school calendar to reflect modern society. Year-round schooling calendar would be beneficial to students.…
As grades go down teachers, parents and educators are wondering how to solve this problem. One answer they have come up with much research is year around school. However, the potential benefits of year-round school are very little and are outnumbered by the cons. The raising utility bill, scheduling complications and ironically no academic improvement are some of the many negative outcomes of year round school. True, year around school has a lot of benefits but with all the pros comes all the cons, and because of this year round schooling should be banned in all public schools.…
If students are away from school for a shorter amount of time, they will not forget information and will remember how to work properly. For example, if students are away for a long time, they will forget how to work and act in the school environment. However, if they are not of as long, then they will remember more and act properly in school. Staying in school for longer periods of time will make students get better grades. When students stay in school and work more, they will have more practice and perform better on tests, leading to students obtaining better grades. Finally, with summer break shortened, school life will ultimately improve. With students being in school together for longer time frames, they will have to be around each other longer, and that will cause new friendships to be made and relationships to form. As the old saying goes, “ Friends in high school are friends for life.” Some people say that summer break should not be shortened and school should not go year round. This is wrong because when summer break is shortened and school goes year round, students ultimately benefit because their grades improve and they retain information over the…
Imagine yourself on summer vacation. It’s warm and the weather is beautiful.Though this vacation might sound good, imagine the boredom you will feel after three long months of doing almost nothing. Summer seems to have lasted forever, and once you go back to school, you hardly remember anything that you had learned last year. Now imagine school in November. You’ve been at it for three months, and you’re struggling to get through. School might seem to be dragging on and on. With year-round school both of these scenarios can be changed for the better. All of this leads me to believe that more freshmen should support going to a year-round school system.…
I have some facts to support this reason. year round school would mess with the student's family's plans they had for during the summer. Schooling, if we had less vacation time it would mess with our imagination. All we would know is fact's math, and how to read and do all of the other subjects that the school teaching, but if the school…
How would you feel if you were having a fun time with your family on a nice day in the middle of August, but then you realize you have to go to school tomorrow. Also imagine sitting in a class in the middle of summer baking like a batch of potatoes. If you went to a year round school that could be you. Year round schools would be a great idea if you didn’t know anything about them. I am against year round schools because of the scheduling and the extra cost.…
Without a doubt, having an extended year-round school solves the problems of traditional schooling. Students do not have the burden of remembering of all the information learned over the prior school year over the long break. Changing will also allow students to come into the next grade refreshed and ready. The…
