A bill before the Georgia legislature proposes that the school year be cut from 180 days to 170 days claiming that students and teachers need a longer summer vacation. Do you think the school year should be changed? Why or why not?

"I don't think it should be changed. I think the students should go 180 days." MILTON BROOME Retired, AIG Manager "I think the school year should not be made shorter. Studies show that children need more time on tests, not less, in order to learn." PEGGY BARNETT Retired Teacher "The school year should be changed to all-around school. Traditions have changed. Students need to go yearly with scheduled vacations and that way they will advance themselves quickly." PEGGY WEST Person at home "I think it should be left like it is." GARY MANSFIELD Retired
