Avoyelles Parish has been four days for the last several years. I am not saying it is because of this, but school scores have improved dramatically and the overall district score went from a D to a B this past year. Teacher and student absenteeism is down, and you do get some financial savings when it comes to the cost of busing, food, and utilities. Avoyelles also has Mondays off and the reasoning behind that was because the calendar already had several Mondays off (Labor Day, MLK, etc.) it allows to not have to take off for those days. Also many doctors offices and the like work a half day on Fridays so having the Monday off would allow parents to have more options when making those types of appointments. Some parents were against it at first but now the overwhelming majority of the parents support it.

You're like the third person to make that claim with not a single post to back it up.
