Four day school weeks would be very beneficial in many different ways. The first is not having to worry about missing school days if they were planning on doing something fun with their families. Some kids start to get worried about having to miss school when they go on a trip with their families‚ and it would also mean that they wouldn’t have to make up homework for missing school that day. Having a four day school week would also benefit the teachers too. It would benefit them by giving them more
