Roberta Bondar Public School in Peel Region near Toronto will start the school year August 4th. Other year-round schools start classes July 27th. Mike's top five reasons why we don't have year round school in Prince George.
#5. Cost saving measure: Vacant, empty buildings require less air conditioning on these extremely hot Prince George summer days.
#4. Year round school really takes away from the fun of summer school.
#3. Pine Beetles ate all our desks.
#2. We use the portables for fishing camps in the summer (That's why they smell like that in the fall).
#1. We do have year round school! Hockey school, soccer school, basketball school.
