The Pros And Cons Of Year-Round School

Keep The Summers! Every school requires breaks throughout the year and days off on important holidays. Schools should require summer break for kids.

While it is understandable that people could think summer takes away from learning and you could forget half of the things they learn over summer vacation I think it is actually not good for their education. Schools should have summer vacations for kids because kids shouldn’t be bombarded with the rush of changing from a school schedule to a break.
