Argumaent Paragraph edited

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. 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?
