Foreword

The idea of this survey was generated in planning sessionsfor the 5th National Seminar on Year-Round Education sponsored by theVirginia Department of Education. It was apparent that -much informa-tion important to the yea -round education movement was availableonly from widely scattered sources which made collection onerous andled to the further task of organization of the data once they were inhand. The Virginia Department of Education asked and received theassistance of the New Jersey Department of Education in surveyingstate and outlying district education agencies to secure and put intousable form the needed information.

Users of this survey are invited to make comments andsuggestions toward improving the aecondssurvey which will be under-taken early in 1974. Users also are Anvited to reproduce any partor parts of the document, since only a'short preSs run is possibleat this time.

While not as complete as we know this survey can be, it isour hope that it will be of use to thoSe with responsibilities forresearching, planning, developing and operating year-round educationprograms at the state and local levels. We are _pleased to have halthe opportunity to cooperate with the Virginia Tepartment of Educationin this project.
