That's horrible. It doesn't just affect students and teachers but the entire country. Summer break is a huge deal for everyone here, maybe even extending out. Imagine how it affects the economy [b]everywhere[/b] without Summer Break. Not to mention it'll lower morale. Nonstop school? Are you kidding me? I'm not even in it anymore.
That's a horrible idea that affects everybody. Not to mention you spend the first 16-18 years still in what could potentially be called an institution. Being in a building 7 hours a day doesn't make a person, it just educates them. It's not more important than creating a personality. Harder to do with only 2 days off a week. Nobody goes anywhere, don't see anything for the first 17 years because they had school and never have a change to leave.
Who would you be, honestly if school was in session year-round? I think that's the real question.

Year-round schedule doesn't eliminate vacations [particularly summer vacation], it just makes it shorter; usually around 5-7 weeks instead of a few months.

Who does that benefit though? Honestly?

Everyone, really. Teachers get to teach through the whole calendar year. Students get more frequent breaks which relieve stress.

They [b][u][i]get[/i][/u][/b] to? I'm sure they'd love that idea.

Most teachers do. It's not like teachers get a 3-month paid vacation during the summer with traditional schedules.
