2. What it is You’ve probably heard of it. If you haven’t, I’ll explain it. Year around school is, well, school year-around! No long summer, just several short breaks. It has been used in various schools, and it does work. You retain facts better and learn more by not having a long summer break.
3. How will it benefit me? Year-around school will help you keep in touch better with your friends, remember more stuff, and you can still have fun! In the short couple-week breaks, you can go to camp, hang out with friends, and go on vacation!

5. Cons One of the things you may want to consider is the cost to keep open the school in the summer. Your school would have to afford air conditioning, if they don’t have it already. Another is your attention span. Can you focus on school work the whole year, and take small breaks? Some might, others might not.
