Residential schools in Canada began to introduce summer holidays in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with some schools adopting this practice as early as the 1870s. The length of the summer break varied among different schools and would typically last from a few weeks to a couple of months. However, these holidays were often used by the schools as opportunities for students to engage in farm work or other forms of manual labor.

The issue of school vouchers is very interesting. The original purpose of the voucher was to provide money for private schools to stop integration of public schools. They were to keep white schools white in 1959. Since the publication of the book "Schools at Risk" the conservative influence on schools has compared them to a business rather than what they are. Schools are not created to make profits but to teach children. The new revamped voucher program argues parents have the "right" to choose the place of education for their children, but the use of taxpayer dollars to provide private religious education can be against the separation of church and state. The vouchers will not improve education, but rather remove funds from public schools and poor parents still won't be able to afford the private schools because the voucher given them won't cover the entire tuition. Research has shown that in schools where vouchers have taken over whole systems the schools loose ground in test results and the students do NOT improve. Private religious schools also do not have to take at risk students, special needs students, students who have other problems. Essentially they shut the doors on millions of students and put them at a disadvantage because the funds that should have gone to the public schools has gone to the private schools. If we want to improve schools we need to do several things. My PhD dissertation was on charter schools and the results of my research showed that we need to set a national agenda of what makes an educated person.

Sectarian schools are associated with a specific religious denomination and often incorporate religious teachings into their curriculum, while non-sectarian schools do not have a religious affiliation and focus on providing a more secular education.

Residential schools and day schools both have their own advantages and disadvantages. Residential schools can provide a more immersive educational experience but may lead to feelings of isolation from family and community. Day schools allow for more frequent family interaction and support but may not offer as intensive a learning environment. Ultimately, the effectiveness of each type of school depends on individual circumstances and needs.
All across Canada. Residential schools were common for many Canadians as our population was spread very thinly, too thinly to have schools within a horse or canoe ride. As a result Canadians would send their children to areas with populations large enough to have schools. Many of those schools would have the students stay at the school. Residential schools were also called Boarding schools and still exist today.

Residential schools were isolated schools where aboriginal children were forced away from their families home and culture and were forced to adapt into a white society. these schools were run by the roman catholic church. The aboriginal children who were sent there were often separated by gender, were forced to learn English or french. If they were caught speaking native tongue they would be beaten, locked in closets without food, humiliated, and often were raped. --- Schools where you resided were called Residential Schools. Canada's population was spread across the land and often children had to travel considerable distances to attend school. Residential schools or boarding schools addressed those problems by having children live and often work at schools which were usually far away from home but near major population centres. Today the term usually refers to Canada's aboriginal policy of having racial segregated residential schools off the reserves. These residential schools were run and operated by non-aboriginals and resulted in so much abuse that their history has been apologized for by Canada. We still have racial segregated schools but now they are operated by the Aboriginals themselves and bear no resemblance to the residential schools of the past.
Opinions about using PA systems for announcements in residential areas will vary. Personally, I believe using the PA for non emergency announcements in residential areas is okay, especially since most announcements are made within the school and would not disturb the residents in the area.
