U nfortun a tely, the house- parents, Craig and Gail Bazzi, lost everything including all their wedding presents ...silver, glassware, and all their treasures that were stored in the attic until such time as they had their own home. Their clothing is gone too, and Gail is about size 12 or 13 and Craig is 6 foot 2 and of a medium build. The boys are between 12 and 16 and they lost everything too They especially need some winter coats. One of the greatest immediate needs is for blankets, bedding, towels, linens and pillows.

Bayless phasized that the year-round system does not appear to offer a permanent solution to his school's space crunch While year-round schools are not new, they have not yet become widely accepted. They have shown the ability to solve space problems in schools but there are numerous other factors to be considered. On the positive side, many educators feel that the frequent, short vacations are an aid to learning and keep students from getting tired of school during a regular, nine month school year. Better retention of learned material is also mentioned as a common benefit due to the fact students aren’t away from school so long. Taxpayers often voice support of year-round schools as they feel their tax dollar is b etter spent when school buildings are used all the time. Negative aspects frequently mentioned include the loss of summer work by both students and faculty, an increase in maintenance costs, the for m ation of narro w social “ cliques” in each track and the need for expensive a ir con ditioning during the summer months. Lund said that an analysis of the current budget showed that a switch to year-round schools would entail an additional cost PLEASE NOTE!
