180 days of school/year in the US?
That would be about 6 months of no school.
When I attended school, we got off about a week for Christmas and there were no Fall or Spring breaks. Then, we were out of school June, July and August. Roughly ~260 days of school each year.
Is it any wonder that over the past couple of decades the school kids have been dumbed down?
“180 days of school/year in the US?

No it wouldn’t,180 school days days is equivalent to 36 weeks of school.

Forget about weekends and holidays?
Most schools have holidays off, a break at thanksgiving, christmas, and spring break, and several days off for teacher workdays and study days.
IN oru area, and north, they have up to 10 snow days as well.
And your “260” days includes saturdays and sundays, while I presume you didn’t actually attend school on weekends.
If you attended school every single weekday in every month except june, july, and august, you would be at 170 school days. There are a total of 260 weekdays in a year.
