topic of schools converting to a four-day school week. The main reason for this transition would be for schools to save money which was discussed in both articles. Many schools found that eliminating Fridays can save money on transportation‚ heating‚ food services and substitute teachers. The articles also stated that the number of student‚ teacher and staff absences also declined. Students’ scores increased which they believe is due to additional class time in the extended hours of a four-day week.

On a crisp fall morning‚ parents lined the school’s circular driveway in Audis‚ BMWs and Land Rovers‚ among other luxury SUVs‚ to drop their high-schoolers off at Detroit Country Day School.

‘The school day should start late’ Almost every weekday‚ high school students are waking up around six o’clock in the morning to get ready for school‚ some even earlier. It’s not practical for high school classes to start at 8.30 or earlier. It’s just too early for teenage minds to function properly. Our school should start at least an hour later than that. With the extra hour‚ our attendance would improve‚ as well as our grades and attitudes. The facts are all there‚ so why shouldn’t the hours

The Dickenson County School Board wants to add a hour and a half to the school day. I disagree with the idea for three reasons. One‚ the school day is long enough. Two‚ children will not have time for sports‚ clubs‚ and other after school activities. Three‚ stress levels are bound to rise with this nonsense. Why add boring hours to dreary days? Staff and students handle more than meets the eye during the day. The effects of a change such as this will only end poorly. In other words‚ why torture children
