[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Aren’t there school districts in other states that are forced to have four day weeks due to budget reasons? How do those parents do it?

I would like to keep 4 day weeks too but I don’t see it happening because I believe teachers would need to move at a much faster pace and too many students wouldn’t be able to keep up with that faster pace.[/quote]

Please tell us where.[/quote]

Many parts of Colorado.[/quote]

What are the characteristics of the districts that go 4-days-a-week?  Rural?  What types of jobs?  Is the level of education the same?  Are school days longer?  Does the district offer help for the families that would need to hire someone for that fifth day (eg., school-based camp)?[/quote]

Here's a link that answers a lot of your questions: https://www.cde.state.co.us/cdeedserv/fourdayschoolweekmanual
I'm not from CO but have family there. Two of my cousins did four day school weeks when younger. I can ask them any specific questions you have and see if they know. [/quote]
