I wouldn't mind this if our school schedule was more like Australia's, their school year makes more sense than ours.

Longer school years, not year round school. Also, No Child was and will continue to be a steaming pile of stuff unless we do something about it, so I can't see this as a bad idea.

Also, it ends most voucher use, so I can't complain.

Well what I think most kids are so butthurt about is the whole "Take away summer vacation" deal. I doubt that it would ever be completely taken away, there'd still be about a month or so for kids to relax and enjoy and still be able to retain what they learned from the previous year.
