2 schools abolish year-round calendar bullshit

This year-round school garbage is just that: garbage.

But now 2 schools in suburban Utah are abolishing the failed year-round calendar they've had for years and restoring summer break.

One of the schools pioneered the scourge of year-round school even before the spleezyglup wave of year-round switchovers that began in the mid-'90s. This school had been year-round for 18 years.

So the rest of the country was modeling itself on what a suburb in the most conservative state was doing? I wonder if they'll continue, now that this locale has abolished the very plague that it helped usher in.

Apparently, one of the excuses that these schools used when they adopted year-round school in the first place was that there wasn't enough room for all the students to be on the same schedule.

Bull. And shit. If there wasn't enough room, it was because they were too cheap to add more space until years later.

That the natural cycle has seasons is nature's way of telling us what's intended and what isn't. Science has been on our side all along.
