4 Day School Weeks

4 Day School Weeks

The Issue

Shorten the current 5 day school weeks to 4 days by removing a day from the current schedule. 

I say this is a great idea because if we make a 3 day weekend the norm, students and staff will have more time to re-energize for the upcoming week. Not only will we have more downtime but we will also have more time to work on homework and lesson plans instead of cramming it all into 2 days. Students will also be more encouraged to go to school since the weeks are shorter. To conclude, cutting out a day can make students and staff happier and more productive than the typical 5 day schedules we’re all so accustomed to.
