The purpose of this study was to compare the differential effects of the organizational structure of learning as influenced by a year-round calendar (distributed learning) vs. a traditional calendar (massed learning) on student attendance and student achievement. Research that dates back to 1885 and the work of Hermann Ebbinghaus was revisited in order to make application of his findings regarding memory and retention as related to an investigation into the effect of school calendar and academic learning time upon student achievement. This quantitative causal-comparative research study included 28 elementary schools operating under a year-round calendar. Student achievement data were collected for third-, fourth-, and fifth-grades using the campus average reading and mathematics scores from the Texas Assessments of Knowledge and Skills. Student attendance rates for all the campuses were collected from the Academic Excellence Indicator System. The student achievement data and the overall campus student attendance rate were compared to 28 identified traditional calendar schools, selected from a comparable campus group, as assigned by the Texas Education Agency (TEA). Findings revealed one area of academic difference for fifth grade economically disadvantaged students in mathematics and a difference in attendance. Both differences where found in favor of the traditional calendar; however the general conclusion was that the year-round school calendar and the traditional school calendar do not have dramatically different outcomes and the scheduling of the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) may favor the traditional calendar.
