Staff Comments:

  • "YES PLEASE!!!"

  • "It is something long over due. With a lot of companies and businesses already utilizing this working environment, I see a positive coming from it. In my previous employment I worked a four day work week and it was very positive."

  • "I am very interested in our district exploring a 4 day school week. I would love to have this extra day, I'll probably use these Friday's off for grading and planning. It will be a great help."

  • "Considering the number of Fridays there are a high number of subs and extracurricular activities which require students to miss school, this may be the best solution!"

  • "I would like more information on what the day length would be like and if they stretched out the school year what would happen."

  • "If staff worked 4 days then I'm interested in hearing details."
