OUTLINE Intro      The argument is that should we add two extra weeks to school? There is an argument in favor and there is an argument against. I believe that the cost of adding two weeks outweigh the benefit of education on the students. Body       First of all, many of the students and teachers are not getting enough time off. Whenever they get to school they are always stressful and tired. The teachers and students need a break. The students and teachers hardly get to spend time with their parents and friend. Adding two more weeks to school are just going to make things worse. There is only so much students can learn in a year. If the students have already learned everything, then what was the point of adding those two weeks?      Secondly, this idea will cost the district a lot more money. They will have to pay the teacher, Janitor, principle, etc. They will also have to pay for electricity and water. All of this can add up to at least a thousand dollars just for two wee

OUTLINE Intro              -Imagine two weeks more of school, cutting into your summer vacation! I believe that students should not have to go to school two weeks earlier for 2 reasons: students and teachers need a time off, and it will cost the district more money. Body       Need time off              -Teachers and students need a break              -They need for family time      Cost               -Will have to pay the teacher, Janitor, principle, etc              -Will have to pay for electricity and water       Others may say it improves education              - I agree              -But I believe that that the cost for the district and the stress on the students outweighs the                         -             benefits of education on the students. Conclusion            -In Conclusion I think that giving the students a bigger time off, and keeping the school prices are more important for two weeks of extra education.
