Year-Round Schools

Klappentext During summer break, students forget everything they spent the school year learning. So goes a common critique of the traditional academic calendar. Can we improve education on a mass-scale by simply extending classes into the summer? Or is rest and time away from school a beneficial and productive aspect of education in America? This anthology offers analyses and solutions to a topic relevant to every American. Experts weigh in on the drawbacks and potential benefits of year-round school from conflicting perspectives.
