text: Learning during the summer by the means of a summer project, would be optimized if the projects were designed and regulated by the teachers because many students lack the motivation, as well as the knowledge of what they'll be learning in the next year and how to most effectively prepare themselves for it. It is the teachers job to teach the student and assign them things that will benefit their learning. Summer is supposed to be the most exciting time of the year, and because kids only get so many of these carefree summers without responsibility, I think it's reasonable to ask that teachers take a slight weight off their shoulders and not ask them to design their own projects while at the same time steering them in the right direction and ensuring they are learning information that will benefit them in the oncoming school year.Dear Principle
