Narration and Introduction

By MONDAY - you should have drafts for these sections completed.
1) Narration


Student Sample

Year-round school is an education based system in which is a 180-day program, the breaks are more frequent, however, they are also shortened.“Summer setback” is commonly known in the average schooling system, however, the goal for year-round schooling was for students to experience less “Summer Setback” and gain more overall knowledge. Year-round schools have existed since the early 1900s, there was steady growth in the number of year-round schools from the mid-1980s to 2000. The 350, 000 students in 1985, with 410 year-round public schools around America have increased. When people (mostly parents) hear the name year-round school they think an extra three months of relaxation is lost. However, this is not necessarily true. This problem is different because of more breaks and maximized time. Parents may even think it is much of an authoritarian program. However, these are all just conjectures, many of the people in which say these things have no evidence to back up what they are saying about this statuary program. These are all refined education systems, so let this be a prelude to the different education based systems such as year-round school.
