Year round school is a no no

year round school is a no no

Year round school can be bad and very rarely year round school can be good. But most of the time it can be bad. Let me tell you a couple reasons why.         
      I think year round school is  bad because when  you have all of the breaks 
in  between, you might forget things acedemicly. For example, if they have a math test after there month long break off school, it won't improve the test scores because over the break they could have forgotten some of the things on the test.     "Many students wouldn't want to go to school year-round and would get tired of it, which would result in many drop outs." it says in an artical on the website pantagragh.com. I agree because if you have school all summer long then kids would soon get stressed and it would be stressful on the teachers.
     It's not effective, and it's more expensive to operate. It's been proven nationwide that it doesn't improve test scores." An article says in an (unknown) website. To be honest, I agree. If you are in school for the whole year, you would be learning new things and forgetting the old things. That is why it dosn't improve test scores.
        Another reason I think year round schools are a bad idea is because they barely get any summer breaks. I would rather have one big summer break than having small breaks in between."I made it clear that I was against year round education because children needed more time and freedom to be kids, not less." Dreah Lauriane in decemeber of 2007 writes in an article on voices.yahoo.com 
about how her kids need freedom and to be kids. It relates to my detail because kids should be free over the summer and be kids."While most students are at home or on trips with family, some are in school working all summer long." That's what she states in one sentence of her essay. 
     My last reason on why year round school is bad is because it would be harder to operate. Sence year round school goes year round, they would need to have air conditioning because it  would be hot in the summer. Having air conditioning all summer would be
