[quote=Anonymous][quote]Why? How old are your kids? Can you help me understand the benefits to a schedule like this?[/quote] I'm not the PP but as a teacher, the year-round schedule is far preferable to me because of the huge losses I see occur the summer--and those losses are truly compounded by how much time we spend re-teaching in the fall and giving endless required assessments so we can quantify what losses students had over the summer. A year-round schedule would mitigate those losses and give us a chance to catch students up after briefer breaks. I truly would prefer genuine year-round school, at least in the Title I schools, with as few breaks as possible to help students try to make it to grade level, but I know that's not going to happen.[/quote]
