Page 1 Once upon a time in Gingerbread Elementary School, two best friends, Izabella and Mairead, were counting down the seconds until the school bell rang for Christmas Break! Page 2 “Three, two, one,” the best friends exclaimed in unison as the bell rang. “I can’t wait for you to sleep over tomorrow Izzie!” Mairead emphasized as they were walking out of school.…
Andriana Skaperdas Life Rumor has it.. that is it’s the “Holla Days” As soon as people ripped off their halloween costumes, it seemed that they were caught putting up their christmas lights. We should take a moment to pay tribute to the poor forgotten holiday that is caught between these two events; thanksgiving. Good, now let's focus on the presents, oops…
The percentage of public schools attending year-round school is 10%. Many people dispute on whether or not American schools should do a nine-month school calendar or a balanced calendar. The original schedule was implemented because children were needed to work in the fields during the summer. A balanced calendar should not be an option. One reason a balanced calendar shouldn’t be used because it increases expenses.…
1.Schedule Year-round school messes with schedules for associations/groups such as the boy scouts too much. Their schedule has heavily relied on 1 long summer vacation a very long time. Also, it is more difficult to arrange things such as family reunions and things that require similar breaktimes. It can detrimental to family time as it takes more time out of children’s lives.…
No just no. Should students go to a year round school. Students should not have to attend a year round school. Year round school will get ruled against from all the stress it causes. With year round school students will have no time to find a summer job.…
Would year-round school or would normal school be more beneficial for students? Some people believe that year-round school is better and are thinking about changing their school schedule to year-round. The education system should change schools to a full year schedule because students get the same amount of time off, students wouldn’t forget information as easily, and students would have a mind of clarity. If schools switched to year-round school, students wouldn’t forget information as easily.…
Should our school be year round, or should students have the summer off ? When I look for some good ideas I found a few articles that stated students that go to year round school get better education, they get better colleges, traditional schools. So i'm going to test them and see if there correct. Students go to year round schools and get a better education. They seem to get more school, not forget as much, and get better jobs after school.…
It has been proved time and time again, that students are happier when they get the opportunity of having a summer break. Without a summer break students don't perform the best of their ability. The school calendar should not run year-round because students perform better, and extra costs are avoided, however students would have more learning opportunities. All year long I look forward to summer. It's a time to be with friends, have no homework, and be carefree.…
Students enjoy the long break they get during the summer. Would anyone enjoy going to school all year round having multiple breaks? Having a long break during the summer is more enjoyable because, there is more time to spend with family, students can find a summer job, and one has a full summer to enjoy without stress from school. Having all this time during the summer when it's a great time for going outside and having fun, would be great to spend with family and friends. One could take the time to plan a nice long vacation for there family.…
The possibility of year round schools has been a hot debate topic for the last ten years. But, keeping a student's attention for nine straight months is a hard task. It is especially hard when teachers constantly give homework to students. Students get so burnt out by everyday school, that they are more concerned about getting through the year than really learning. Some even take days off of school because it begins to be too much.…
Every year on Thanksgiving break I have gone to my grandparents house to stay for the week. For me this is important because my grandparents live a good ways away and I barely get to see them. This became a tradition when I moved away from where they live because that's when our other traditions ended like on wednesdays we used to meet somewhere and eat dinner but we can’t do that any more so we thought that Thanksgiving break is a good time to go see them because we have off school and they can get off work. The whole time we are up there we laugh cook and have fun together.…
There have been arguments for years about whether or not year round schooling is a good idea to put into play in the U.S. Year round school should be allowed in the U.S for many reasons. The topic of year round has been a heated debate for a long time in the U.S. Although many think it’s not a good idea, it is a way that can help the U.S. in many ways. Year round schooling is a very good idea for many reasons such as how it would help give even more breaks and helps mentally, it gives kids more education, and it helps teachers with their lives too at school! Kids will still get breaks and year round schooling will be more beneficial to students education.…
Over these past seven weeks we have gone over a large amount of material. Starting from the basics of understanding how to interpret meanings in the bible, all the way up to the time when the barbarians were invading the European countries. I was not expecting this type of background information for this course. Back when I was scheduling in April, I was super excited to take this course (and still am). I figured I would learn interesting information about Christmas, my favorite holiday, but little did I know the surprises that would come……
The Gap Year is the year after secondary education were the graduate takes time off do anything of their pleasing, either beneficial to their studies or just to have fun. I believe that the Gap Year should be used and practiced in America because many students have been in school for 13-14 years, counting Kindergarten or Preschool, and some of them are just sick of school and they want to go explore. Also some Graduating seniors want to know what it’s like do work at a non very good job to see of they want to stay there for the rest of their life or to get higher education and work at a better place with better pay or get an internship in a company. Another thing students might want to do right after high school is join the military and choose…
Why Your Child Should Take a Gap Year In Europe“1.2 percent of U.S. college freshmen deferred admission to take a gap year in 2011” (Baker). A gap year is a year that a student takes between finishing high school and starting university. This year can be used for whatever a student wants it to be used for, whether that be fishing on a trawler in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, digging wells and erecting schools in South Sudan, or maybe farming in Nebraska, the choice is theirs. Many studies have shown that gap years create cultured, well rounded and more academically motivated students. America needs young graduates right now, this is common knowledge.…
