One of the goals of the four-day school week was to create more effective learning time for students and we’re already seeing positive results.

This year:
• Student athletes missed 35 fewer hours of instruction
• Schools experienced fewer interruptions during the instructional day
• Reduced activity absences helped students spend more time in class

More consistent classroom time means students are able to stay engaged, connected and focused on learning.
