Should Year-Round School Children To Be Healthy?
Do you want your kids to be healthy?In a year round school you have to sit in a school everyday for 8 hours in the summer rather than playing and talking with friends. I think schools should go to a 9 month school.
Kids with year round schooling don't live the same healthy life as a 9 month schools.Kids tend to play outside more in the summer than play outside than be inside.Kids in summer school sit all day in the summer working when they could be having fun outside with friends and family. In addition, Schools need to save money and save up to install new things when school songs.They waste money on the air conditioning during the summer so Kids can feel relaxed.They also have to pay the teachers their time for working with the kids.The school can waste more money and they may run out of money of paying all year.Nine month schools have to pay less because they don't have to play for the air conditioning, teachers, and more.

My opinion is that schools should not have year round because of the reasons I stated.I want students to work and have fun so they don't get bored.School is good but year round school is too much.Kids need rest and play time.Schools will have to use more money than they want to and they should save up for new things.I suggest you talk to your principal about this so they don't have year round

    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.…

    Year-round schools are good,and I do prefer them. There are reasons for this. One reason is because they have a better schedule than what we have now. Most year-round schools go for the 45-15 plan. This is when they go to school for 45 days,…

    What are some cons for public schools to change the school to an all year round school?

    Child care is one of the major issues. Children in year-round school have more frequent breaks and parents do not get time off from work to be with them. Therefore, those parents who have young children have to find a sitter or daycare to watch their child. Another disadvantage is that it may cost the school more money to operate year-round. For example, most school corporations end around May and resume around August, those months the air-conditioner is not being used. Year-round schooling would be in session during those months where the temperatures are increased, causing the school to run the air-conditioner more…

    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…

    There are many approaches that might interest you about year-round schools, but here are three that I find interesting. The first fact about year-round school is that they have short breaks every so often. In the article Year Round School vs. Traditional Schedules in Public Schools it states, “...many schools are getting rid of the traditional summer vacation, yet are simultaneously providing students with more frequent and consistent breaks from school.” Since the traditional summer vacation of around 3 months is no longer essential some experts are saying that the traditional schools are not what is best for today’s children. The second fact about year-round school is that they have schedules that may very slightly. In the article it states, “...the most popular schedule is what’s called a 45-15 plan…”. Which means that children go to school for 45 days and then have 15 days off. The last fact about year-round school is that many states and places have taken part in the year-round…

    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.…

    High school student will also have problems with earning money by working doing school. If that the case schools should have a type of program where students can earn money if school becomes year round. Because students will face problems trying to work doing the summer since they will not have the entire summer off and will only be off in short breaks throughout the year. Although schools will save with year round there are other problems schools will face. During year- round school maintenance departments would use the extended period without students and teachers to make major repairs, changes in the maintenance of some buildings.…

    Year-Round School

    First of all, people might assume that since the summer vacation is shorter, it cannot possibly be better than the summer vacation that they already have. However, there are multiple reasons why year-long school summer vacations are better than regular vacations. First off, students do not get as bored over the summer of year-round school. Speaking from personal experience, regular summer vacation can almost seem too long. When it gets close to the month of August, summer seems like it has drug on forever. Students start to get bored of summer, and they want the interaction with their peers, that they cannot always get over summer. They want to see their friends again, especially the ones that they did not get to see over the summer. With year-round school, this happens less. The summers are shorter, but it allows students to see their friends sooner. It also gives a faster relief of the boredom that many kids suffer after the long months of doing almost nothing at home. Another benefit provided by year-round school is that students do not forget all of their material over summer vacation. Again, summer is long, and students forget almost everything they learned the past year over the vacation. With a shorter summer, like the one provided by year-round school, students will be likely to forget less of the material they learned over the course of the school year. If students forget less of the material that they learned, then they can start at a more advanced spot when they return. If students start more advanced, they will ultimately be able to learn more throughout the course of the year, which further benefits their education. Overall, even summers can be improved by changing to a year-round school…

    Have you ever considered switching to year round schooling? Here are some reasons not to switch, the summer time is packed and expensive, it’s harder for students and teachers, and finally there is a greater possibility for brain drain. In the article “Top 10 Reasons Why Year Round School is a Good Idea,” it states that by having one big vacation block, travel is more expensive. No matter the amount of time you get for summer you will still wind up spending more because both of the summer breaks, for year round and regular schooling, are during the summer months which are when airlines raise their prices. Also, by having less time off there is less time to play sports and hangout with family which is what most kids, like myself, look forward too. Another statement from the article said that breaks that are frequent are good for both students and teachers. With more frequent breaks the teachers will have to cram in all the information before each break. Students look forward to days off of school, but if breaks are more frequent, then they won’t get as excited because the breaks happen so…

    Many schools in the United States are beginning to change their school calendar so their students attend class all year round. The changes still allow the students time off in the summer, but they do not have the three months of break most students in America receive traditionally. Instead, they get a break of a couple weeks in the summer, and the remainder of the time is divided up and put into other breaks throughout the year. All schools in America should switch to a year-round calendar to accommodate the different and higher level of learning needed to be successful in our changing world and society. The traditional school system was designed many years ago when our country was an agricultural nation. Therefore, the school calendar was developed having a long break in the summer so students could assist their family with cultivating crops and other aspects of farm life. The traditional school calendar was not a calendar for higher learning, and should be extended to meet the needs of modern day students. There are many explanations as to why the traditional school calendar should be changed.…
