Year-Round School

By Austin K., Bedford, NY

Year-round school is an interesting way of making sure students learn more instead of having to relearn things each September, but that is not the way I want to learn. Summer is a time to relax. It’s also a good way to make new friends. I go to summer camp and the friends I’ve made there are probably my closest.

Year-round school is also not a good idea because summer is when you visit relatives or go on life-changing experiences. I visit family in Minnesota each summer and always feel my time with them is too short even though I am there for a month.

Summer is the time for family and fun. I wouldn’t want to give up those consecutive months of freedom no matter how much I have to relearn every September.
