Summer vacation also causes challenges for today’s families. In the 1960s, more than 60% of families had a stay­at­home Mom. Now, two­thirds of American children live in households where every adult works. For these families, summer vacation can be more burden than break. Someone must watch the kids.

　　But the biggest problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement. Researchers have found that disadvantaged students lose significant ground in the summertime.

　　A longer school year does not have to be an invitation to hard boring work. Rather, it should allow time­pressed teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons. Schools would have more time to devote to athletics, languages, music and the arts. Summer vacation can be a grand thing. But in the 21st century, it may also be outdated.
