  • I strongly support Longer school days+Year round schools,Hell anything to keep the little Bastards off the streets & and away from my place.

  • @KawaiiNekoGoth ...but teachers that like getting a break every 9 weeks will :)

  • And what are they going to do during all these little vacations throughout the year vs during the summer with more outdoor stuff to do? Who is going to watch the kids? What about family vacations? Some kids leave the country for over a month or go stay with other family members. What about summer camps and other programs.

    BTW I support having kids in schools a little longer (about 200 days) However keeping the180 will these little breaks is pointless. Keep the summer break!

  • Air conditioning? That is your reason?!?! Whoa, you are idiotic.

    Stop screaming "Taxes" like your head is cut off.

    Year around schools provide a way for lower income children, especially, to have continuous learning, other than a long, hot, and boring 3 months off.

    After all, what are kids going to do over 3 whole months anyway? Go to the Bahamas with their preppy parents?

    Source: Me, I go to a 45/15 Year-Around School, in Wake County, NC.

  • how do you get bored in the summer?! wtf is wrong with your people? do you sit inside and play halo all day? of course it's boring if you do that

  • Studies over the years show no improvement in student performance in year round school vs the traditional calendar. However it does cost the tax payers more to run the schools air conditioning in the summer. Dont take away kids summer and give them at least two months off at once.

  • Amen, most teachers wants to get off from school.

  • Bunch of BULL!

    Teachers who have lives will not teach year round. XD
