While supporters contend that year–round schooling will improve student performance, little proof exists suggesting that this is the case. Students in year–round programs attend school for about the same number of days as students in traditional programs. These students do not spend more time learning. Rather, their breaks are just spread out throughout the year. Shorter breaks may make it easier for some students to recall information, but others may struggle if teachers spend too little time on review.
