I think that year round school is not a good idea because I am  from Spain but my mom is from here so when I was four  we moved here to America.  I visit my family in Spain every summer and I couldn't do that if the vacations where shorter.  There would not be any time for me to even see my family in Colorado from my mom side.  I know I am not the only one who would have this problem so I really think that schools should not be year round.
