Cons 4 Day Week – Originally offered as a temporary measure. 4 Day Week – Some patrons perceive it as watering down
education. 4 Day Week – Budget driven decision vs. student driven decision. Pros Other group of patrons like 4 day week. Test Scores have remained flat. Allows district not to run supplemental levy Unknown Budget: JFAC has approved budget, but it is not official
yet. Insurance increase not announced, but likely 12-13%. Operational costs increasing (utilities, transportation, food services, etc.). Staffing concerns with IEP Student Aides.
4 Day Week vs. 5 Day Week
