Question

School districts should consider changing to a four-day school week. The main benefit will be cost savings. If school buildings are open only four days a week, electricity and water bills will be reduced. Schools will also save on bus costs and cafeteria expenses. As a result, schools that make the change will have extra cash to spend on programs that benefit students, Passage 2: Families would benefit greatly from a four-day school week. In today's society, many family calendars are full every moment of the day. With a shorter school week, families would be able to spend quality time together. In addition, each family member would have more time to rest and recharge for the upcoming school week. Both of these benefits will lead to healthier families and higher-achieving students, so schools should make the change as soon as possible. PREVIOUS​
