Some kids might need it, but some already have enough.

We do need a better education system. Not sure if this is a way to accomplish it though.

Longer school years IMO won't make up for the crap teachers we have nowadays. I know a good number of good teachers that had to quit because they couldn't support their families due to the pitiful excuse of a wage that they get. Had one who makes more doing construction than teaching the youth of tomorrow.

How sad that our government puts our nations education so low on their priority list.

We don't need more time in school we need more applied time. When I was on traditional schedule more than half the time I was in class I wasn't doing anything because I had finished all the passed out work. If they applied all the time we spent in class to actually teaching instead of stupid worksheets our education levels might go up.
