Is this was One Fairfax is moving towards? We already have the fewest 5 day school weeks out of any school district in the nation? [i]Will the Unions use collaborative bargaining to get this?[/i][b][/quote]

Did you even read the article you posted? Lmao.

Goddamn it says right in the article:

[quote=From the OP's own source they clearly didn't read...]
Teachers unions and some state officials are skeptical.

Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, complained that such policies could be used as a rationale to avoid increased funding for schools and raising teacher pay.

“A shortened workweek is not a ‘magic pill’ to solve the problem of educator shortages and, in some cases, could be wielded as an excuse by administrators not to invest in schools,” she said in an email. “We risk cutting our way to lower support with the same expectations.”[/quote]

Stop fear mongering against unions and scapegoating teachers for everything christ[/quote]
