Instead, students are in school for 45 days then have a 15-day break through the entire school year. With so many schools following this track it is easily assumed that it is a better choice than the traditional system. But, year-round schooling isn’t better.

Year Round School? Imagine going to school through the summer. The sweltering heat making you sweat buckets in your classroom. Year-round schools have been popping up across the country.

The possibility of year round schools has been a hot debate topic for the last ten years. But, keeping a student's attention for nine straight months is a hard task. It is especially hard when teachers constantly give homework to students.

In year-round school you don’t have to worry about making it…
