Well about two of it is math because my math teacher doesn't teach she just gives us homework then goes over it the next day. The rest of it is history, and I don't have English homework.
Do you really expect the owner of a business to let anyone work three weeks on and nine weeks off.
First off in many places teenagers are having trouble getting jobs anywhere because of the recession. Do you really think they want owners want someone to only work for 3 months when they can get a full time employee?
But yes they would hire you if everyone was on that schedule. Not everyone gets off at the same time so they could make arrangements for you to have a job when you are off and someone else to have one while you are at school. It would actually be more stable employment.
Also people can work while in school, with homework. I know plenty of people who did this. I know plenty of people who worked 60+ hours weeks while in HS and college, likewise I know people that worked these hours, studied, and had to take care of children. So it can be done if you want a job so bad. Also if you go to public school the HW load is a joke anyway.
So dont be so quick to rush into the real world. Like I have said you have your whole life ahead of you to be an adult, work bad jobs, make nothing, live in poverty, and be miserable. Your best way out, and even this is no longer guaranteed, is a good education. The days where teenagers could put one foot into the real world and one foot into being a teenager are over for all but the rich. So if you have rich parents then this doesnt apply to you, but if you are like most WVians you need to choose if you want to attain valuable skills or a minimum wage career for the rest of your life.
Studies using science, statistics, empiricism, critical thinking, western logic, and rationality show how will it improve things.
Arguing for a summer break is the magic argument. Although to be fair most people are against year around schooling because it is a new idea that they are unfamiliar with, like roundabouts. Americans have been known to greatly not want roundabouts in there towns, despite not understanding how they work, and when they do come up within a year 80% of the people who use it change their mind and realize they are great. The reason they are against new things is they dont fully understand them and it scares them. Then there are the magic people who refuse to acknowledge the facts.
They say that kids forget everything over the summer but when I ask anyone if they forgot everything or got a poor education not a one will raise their hand.

What a scientific, empirical, and logical way to come to a conclusion.
Perhaps you would have benefited from year around schooling.
