I have these thoughts and observations about having a year round school year. For millions of kids that are now left to spend their summers in an empty home while parents work, maybe there is a better alternative. There are lots of differences today in our life styles compared to twenty years ago. I have realized in reading about this issue, that there are very good reasons, both for and against, whether there should be school all year. Kids today are also dealing with problems with not having enough money to do summer activities to keep themselves busy. It is a stated fact that lots of other countries send their kids to school for more time each year than the United States. In one person\'s opinion, we need to improve the school year we have now and make it better, rather than make it longer in hopes of making it better. If the school year is made longer, there will be a need for a lot school, summer, students, year, student, need, help, time, stay, something, needs, kids, activities, trouble, think, teachers, risk, out, money, believe, today, things, round, parents, now, lot, home, during, better, behind, about, years, summers, program, one
