Every kid benefits from more school, not just disadvantaged kids. The US education system is falling way behind the rest of the world. This would be a major step towards catching up. Why do students need the summer off anymore anyways? It used to be that they needed to help with the farming... That doesn't make sense anymore. Now most kids have both parents working so they just spend the summer in day care or something. Why not just swap that out for something educational instead?
