Year Round Education

As opposed to a traditional, agrarian schedule with school from September to June, this schedule basically has students in classes 3 months, off one, then repeat. Year round schooling has been proposed as a solution for many problems, from slipping academic performance to unsupervised children during the "summer vacation" months.
