[quote=Anonymous]OP there are worse case scenarios. Because of some cuts my friend's kid was only going to school 4.5 days a week. Mondays the kids got out at 12:15. This wasn't some rural school in the middle of nowhere. It's a local elementary school in NOVA. When I was in school we had 7-8 hour days. I lived in 4 different states during my elementary years so that's why the length is different. Most of those extra hours was filled with recess and music/art/PE. Those are the areas of the most frequent budget cuts. I would like the day to be longer so the kids would get longer breaks in. Kids weren't made to sit at a desk all day. When I went to school in TX we did morning calisthenics every day before classes started.[/quote]
