re: Acadia Parish to move to 4 day school week

But the big stink is that the schools and the parents wanted the day off on Friday which has been how it was for those who had 4 day weeks but the school board voted the day off on Monday

Did they mention why?

I would think there is a much larger portion of the population who has some sort of modified schedule on Friday rather than Monday (shortened day, no work on Friday, etc...).

I guess they don't really care about parental work schedules if they are going to a 4 day week anyway, as the vast majority of people work M-F.

In a 4 day environment in schools, Friday’s off in my mind works better for high schools when you consider athletics.

For elementary schools, a 4 day week schedule helps no one except the lazy teachers that want the extra day off.
