Would a year round school year benefit your child with #Autism?

Would a year round school year benefit your child with #Autism?

When I was a kid, I was terrified at the prospects of switching to a year round school year.

For those that aren't familiar, the concept is pretty easy.

Basically,  school is all year long.  For example, your child would go to school throughout the entire calendar year.  They would get smaller breaks throughout the year instead of one huge break for the summer.

The setup may be different in different areas but it would be something like your kids go to school for 2 months and than get a week or so off.

As a parent with at least one child that loses a great deal during the summer,  I would love to see the year round school in my area. <img src="https://lxnxuovarpoeyuzaxuet.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/blog-images/inline/2012/09/school.jpg" alt="" class="inline-block max-w-full h-auto rounded-xl my-4" loading="lazy" />

My kids would get more frequent breaks but they would be much shorter and this would help them to retain more of what they have learned.

Removing the obvious headaches or road blocks like teachers unions, having to take off of work etc.  What do you think about this idea? Personally,  I would love to see this happen.
