[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I predict in the next decade that even urban areas will be going to 4 day school weeks or go towards shorter school days. There won't be enough $$ to pay staff enough to retain them. Staff won't be willing to stay in the conditions that are present. One solution will be to go 4 days a week or 5-5.5 hour days. Think it won't happen in your area? Think again. My school hosts student observers and student teachers. Most of the staff have been actively encouraging them to change majors. We don't have to twist their arms though once they see what it’s really like.[/quote] I absolutely agree that it’s likely to happen. Local businesses and possibly counties will step in to provide childcare on the fifth day. Some people will love it, others will hate it. [/quote]
