Third-grade teacher Della Hutcheson prepares daily planners for her incoming students Friday, July 29, 2011, while getting her classroom ready for the first day of school at Eastside Elementary School in Rogers. Monday is the first day back to school for Eastside Elementary, which is the only "year-round" school in the Rogers School District. This will be Hutcheson's 10th year teaching at Eastside Elementary.
Students return to class Monday at Eastside Elementary School, which this year is the only school in the district on what is called a continuous-learning calendar.

Our daughter finished her 6 years at Eastside and is off to Middle School. We loved the continuous calendar! Unfortunately, our Kindergartener won't be able to attend with a transfer (there's no space), and even though I know all the Rogers schools are excellent, I really wish a CLC school was available for him....but, I also wish a CLC Middle School was available!

My 2 children also attend Eastside and we love the schedule and also wish that one of the middle schools could be on the CLC. I think that people that don't like this schedule probably haven't tried it. Eastside is a great school and I think the tests scores have shown that.
