If you cut out summer breaks, kids could graduate HS at 8th grade and spend the next four years pursuing college courses, internships or working. You could be graduating college at 18/19 and starting work at 20 with a ton of experience. Our education system is designed to benefit teachers and bureaucrats.
I just dislike the idea of how students waste their holiday breaks and prefer to mess around. If a student aspiring at journalism spent more time working for the local newspapers and student paper, I am certain that there would be a lot of university graduates to get plenty of work and end up employed earlier than they are now.
I don’t think summers should be eliminated, but students should be moved up (or down) according to what they ave shown progress in learning and not have to waste time around idiots. To be honest, time is what you make of it. It’s not something that should be eliminated and to be frank, I believe that schools need to start hiring good teachers, then parents need to stop drugging their kids.
A lot of kids get a very late start in life because they’re drugged via Ritalin and subjected to social engineering. So how are they supposed to learn anything?
