Students in high school do not need so much time, four years to make a decision that will last the rest of their life because in four years, many mishaps can occur. It is possible for students to learn the material they learn in the number of years in school, in a shorter amount of time. Some of the time in school is spent off topic and some is also useless. This is a way to waste time during the school year. Moving much faster, school days will shorten and the number of years in school can be changed. Students in lower grades can speed faster through the material and slow down as they get older. The lower grade material is important to learn in order to understand the later material, but it can be practiced throughout their life. With more and more technology improving, such as calculators, low level mathematics can be simplified with calculators. Technological advancements allow us to easily understand and see math and science. However, it is never helpful to only use technology because if sometimes, that technology fails, then there would be no backup plan to carry out the situation. It is an improper movement to just move ahead to learning to use technology instead of learning the way the technology solves things. School years should shorten because it would also save the district money. With less days, of school, less money would be needed to support everyday school. In a LA article about shortening the school's calender,
"which could save the Los Angeles Unified School District up to $140 million".
From the website, LA article, the ballot casters mostly believe that the decision to shorten school years is an effective idea.With less time in school, less money is needed to be put in daily and for the students, they'll have more free time to attain "street smart" knowledge.In addition, if school does not become effective in earning a job, the last many years in school have been wasted.
Therefore, with shortened school calendars, students can achieve the education they need quicker, save the district some money, and excel in other things besides education.
