[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Melt and learning loss are much worse the longer summers are, it’s not really a question. If you don’t supplement or maintain at all- and let’s be honest here most dc families do not, for various reasons- kids who are on average pretty far behind only fall further behind. Shorter summers are just much better for kids unless you think you- the parent- add more educational value than a school. [/quote] Fall behind what though? The majority of kids have summer break and the majority aren't supplementing over the summer- even private school kids. They are all in the same boat. Everybody loses a little and they get it back.
