The traditional American school year begins in late August or early September.It ends in May or June,followed by summer vacation.
  Why such a long break?Because long ago,young people had to help their families harvest the summer crops.At least this is what people today may think.
  The reason has more to it.A recent report from an education policy center at Indiana University explored the historical roots of the traditional school calendar.
  In the early days of the United States,children were not required by law to attend school.School calendars depended on local needs.
  Students in rural areas went to school for no more than six months of the year -- half in the summer,half in the winter.They worked on family farms during the other months.
  City schools were often open much longer,some for eleven months of the year.Parents were happy to have a place for their children to go while the parents worked.
传统的美国学年开始于八月下旬或九月初.五月或六月结束,之后就是夏季假期.
  为什么会有如此长的假期呢?因为很久以前,年轻人不得不帮助家里收割夏天的农作物.至少这是今天的人们所认为的.
其中有更多的原因.最近的一份报告从印第安纳大学教育政策中心探索出了传统学校校历的历史根源.
  在美国早期,没有法律要求孩子们一定要上学.校历是根据地方需要制定的.
农村地区的学生每年上学的时间不超过6个月,一半在夏天,一半在冬天.他们在家里的农场上干活.
  城市的学校通常会开放更长的时间,甚至有一些11月份的一年.父母也很高兴,他们的孩子有地方可去当他们工作时.
