You have to draw out designs before just randomly designing. Write out measurements and all that. "Fashion Institute of Technology (F.I.T.) in Manhattan, The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Art Institute of California are all considered top programs."
2 :
Bauder College is a small private college in Downtown Atlanta that offers a fashion design program. You should also follow up with checking into Art Institutes throughout the US and of course the epitomy of Fashion Design Schools would be FIT in NYC. Best of luck to you!

Do you think every public school in the USA should start going year round? Why or why not?

no because it's just too long. My attention span will never last a whole year. let alone the 10 months of school we already have
2 :
If there was any data to prove that year-round schools performed better on state tests, I'd be up for it. Otherwise, I see no reason for change.
3 :
no, kids need a break to just play and be kids. There's too much focus on cramming alot of info into kids. Summer lets a kid discover and explore the world he/she lives in without adults telling them what to think or study.
4 :
I sure do. As a police officer, it is a proven fact that crime goes up when kids are out of school. So, one good benefit would be that these kids would be in school instead of breaking into peoples houses. Also the whole point that kids had off during the summer was to help with working the farm. Since our society doesn't revolve around helping pa on the farm, we need to keep kids occupied. "Idle hands are the devils playground" or something to that affect.

no,because kids could get burned out to quick and they should have summer time with family and friends.

We have year round school systems in Lower Alabama. It's a nine week grading period, with intercessions in between that can range from one week to three weeks during the school year, and then a nine week summer break. I like it, I think it keeps the kids in school instead of on the streets or somewhere else getting into trouble. It aslso keeps them from getting total burn out by having the intercessions inbetween each nine weeks. Most of our private schools have adapted to the year round school schedule as well. My aunt did not like it for her kids, but this was 15 yrs ago when the whole idea began.

I don't know if every public school in the USA should go year round or not, as in some areas it might not be easliy done, i.e. the weather, farming areas, etc. But that said, when I lived in Calif. my kids went to a year round elementary school and it worked great for them and for us. Going year round they didn't forget what they had learned, like kids do over a long summer break. When they have a long summer break, they usually spend the first 4 to 6 weeks re-learning stuff from the past year. Also my kids were in a "Loft" system school, where they rotated from teacher to teacher as needed for their level in a subject. This also was great because some kids are good in reading, but need more help in math for example. A Loft System is where each grade level is in a large room, that separtes off into smaller "pods" for each teacher. This is a great system. Personally, I now prefer to homeschool my kids, as I feel they get a better education at home than in the public schools. And they can learn daily or take breaks when its convenient for our family. Homeschooling is really a great way to teach your kids. You are in control of what they learn, how they learn, and not influenced bad behaviors of other children or even adults. Hope this answers your question. It is a good one. :) :) ***As a side note because I noticed some people maybe have the wrong idea about year round school - you go to school for 9 weeks and then have 3 weeks off. You don't go to school for the whole 12 months

No! I'm biased because I'ma student, but summer is a special time. maybe scools in academic emergency or near it should do this but, not schools that are doing well. Summer gives kids off time to relax. People get to spend time with their families. There's hardly enough time to read independently while you're in school, so people wouldn't get to do that. Students don't forget that much over the summer. At my school we spend about a week on review (maybe two weeks in Math or Latin) and we still learn new things during that time. Teachers like summer break too. It gives them time to be with their familes. To not grade papers. To go on their honeymoons. It's hard to squeeze vacations into the periods that would go with year round school. Maybe a trip to California, but if you're going all the way to Europe, you're going to want to be there for a while. So no, I don't agree.
