Question

A growing trend in most states is the push for year-round education. Most states and school districts still participate in a regular school year with a three-month summer break. However, some believe that it is not nearly as beneficial for students as year-round schooling. One reason is because the summer break is too long, and students tend to forget what they've learned before the break. With year-round schooling, students can better retain what they've learned since there is no long break between grades. Another advantage for students is school uniforms since most school districts are requiring them. Also, year-round school better prepares high school students for college since most college students go to summer school terms as well as fall and spring terms.
