Imagine yourself on summer vacation. It’s warm and the weather is beautiful.Though this vacation might sound good, imagine the boredom you will feel after three long months of doing almost nothing.

All of this leads me to believe that more freshmen should support going to a year-round school system.…
The break between June and September, when students are released from school for a whole three months, is what every school-age kid looks forward to during the “torturous” 9 months prior.

Most parents and teachers also take advantage of these 3 school-free months to take vacations and spend quality time with their kids. While most are overjoyed when the bell rings on the final day of class, most fail to realize that summer vacation is truly detrimental to not only the learning process, but to a child’s well-being and teachers’ socio-economic status. Thesis statement…

The need for change in the school calendar is very crucial, and be beneficial for multiple purposes.…
The two articles assigned address the controversial topic of schools converting to a four-day school week. The main reason for this transition would be for schools to save money which was discussed in both articles. Many schools found that eliminating Fridays can save money on transportation, heating, food services and substitute teachers. The articles also stated that the number of student, teacher and staff absences also declined. Students' scores increased which they believe is due to additional class time in the extended hours of a four-day week. This also provides the opportunity for students to catch up on any projects, assignments and participate in any extracurricular activities. Many teachers and staff would still be present on Fridays to complete paperwork, tutor, meet with parents and to help with the extracurricular activities.…
