1.15.14- Year-Round School Essay

I think that year round school is not a good idea. It overall limits students and forces them to do something that is sometimes not the best course of action for a student's learning process.
First of all, summer gives the opportunity for children to grow and mature, which gives the a new outlook for the new school year. It gives them a chance for a fresh start. During the summer, you can start over and get all you bearings together. (Warrick-Harris)
The more time that is spent in school gives students less time to earn money for college or even to maintain a steady job. They might be forced to work during the school year, therefore lowering their grades overall. (Anonymous)
Finally, summer allows time for children with educational opportunities that they can't get in school such as a summer reading program, learning to swim, summer camp, or vacationing to faraway places. The summer is a great time to take off work and experience new things. (White)
In conclusion, we shouldn't take summer away from children. School shouldn't become We should let them enjoy being children for as long as possible.
