What is year-round school?

Year-round school is instruction arranged over 12 months rather than the customary 10-month schedule most school divisions currently follow. Students are taught the identical curricula but receive instruction in approximately 45-day blocks of learning, with vacations and intersessions of 5-15 days distributed throughout the year. Year-round school represents a change in when students learn, not in what and how they learn.

Year-round school occurs when the scheduled school year does not take a traditional summer break between grade promotion. Summer vacation was instituted to allow for children to work family farms, a practice largely outdated in present society.
