I think there should not be year round school. There should not be year round school because students are going to not have any relaxing and they need summer break. Summer break gives the mind a break and they have something to look forward too. It helps us feel relaxed. Also, when students go to school all year long, it feels like going to school until we are older, and we wouldn't be very entergetic. Also, year round schools have no more achivement then regular, yet there's more school, so it's between having a 3 month vacation or not, and we need the vacation. We want a break sometimes, and it won't make a difference if we change to year round. And, everyone needs time with their family, to go on vacation, and go to camp with their friends. One expert, Dr. Peter Scales, says, “The biggest plus of camp is that camps help young people discover and explore their talents, interests, and values. Most schools don’t satisfy all these needs. Kids who have these kinds of camp experiences end up being healthier and have fewer problems.” If we have year round school, we won't be able to go on long vacations and things that we need to do. And it costs a lot for year round schooling.For example, a high school in Arizona had a cost increase of $157,000 when they switched to year-round schooling. That cost might be trouble to some schools for this cost. In another article, it said the recent Massachusetts plan, which increased school time by 30 percent in its first year, required an additional 20 percent in base funding, or an average of $1,300 extra per student. I think the money could be better spent and have more benefits. ALso, since 1980, 95 percent of schools that tried the year-round schedule changed back to a traditional calendar. It is certain year round schooling does not help, so why should we change the traditional calendar? An article also says another challege is persuading parents who see no real benefit for their own children for giving up the vacation schedule they have come to expect. And in another it said In traditional settings, teachers are on 12 month contracts, work for nine months, and receive their salary over a 12 month period. Thus teachers often pursue other employment, generally in the summer and about 30 percent of teachers take summer jobs to supplement their incomes, and try and get a bigger wage than their teaching wage. Consequently, it may be difficult to recruit and retain teachers in a year round school setting. This would be hard for teachers. What's wrong with traditional? I do not think their should be year round school.

Officer Huckleberry knocked on the door. He was at a cabin on the top of the hill, where a suspect lied. Nothing was on the hill, except for grass. No path, nothing. Not even a tree. A young teen opened the door. “Hey.” He said. “I’m George.” “Did you steal a TV from Mr. Sygorg?” Officer Huckleberry asked. “Uh, no, I have one, but that’s not the one. I ‘va had it and been using it for years.” “You’re lying.” Answered Officer Huckleberry. WHY DOES OFFICER HUCKLEBERRY SUSPECT GEORGE?

Officer Huckleberry picked up the phone. “Hi, this is Mr. Huckleberry. You are arrested under the law.” “Kids.” He said. Don’t joke around. How did he know they were kids?

If I could make any item on animal jam I would make an item for a den, I would make a Phantom Robot. It would follow you around your den and you can control it to go after you, everyone, the people in your den, or your friends in your den. If it touched you or someone it would zap you and you would turn purple and black for ten seconds. It could guard your den like that. And you can make a boundary for where it can go in it’s settings!
