Why kids should have year round school instead of summer vacation?

Kids need their vacation. Its that simple. I am a kid myself and personally in my school we lack holidays. Our summer break is 7 weeks long. After A hard school year full of ICGSE kids need to have their down time and break.


Should the school day be extended?

School hours should not be longer for many reasons. First of all, kids will lose their concentration in class, get restless, and probably fall asleep (more than they usually do anyways). Second of all kids need free time after school. they need time to spend with their families, do homework (yeah right), and just chill. School is very stressing! Third, longer school hours could interfere with after school activities (not school related). Sports mostly. Last but not least, this extending of the school day could effect parents' jobs. If they work at night or in the evening and have to pick you up from school at a certain time, they can no longer do this. They will have to get a babysitter or a nanny, if needed, to do some of their jobs/chores ............................ That's another thing chores! I highly doubt anyone will do their chores.

In Canada how long do high school students stay in school?

Generally 4 years is required to receive a high school diploma. (Grade 9,10,11 12) however, there are some kids who do a fifth year. The fifth year option is usually used for students who want to re-do a course to improve their original mark, or to just take more courses. In the 4 year period, students should earn the 30 credits, needed to graduate from high school.
