How can a four-day school week be better for students than a five-day week? The Monday-through-Thursday schedule has been adopted by many rural districts, mostly to save money. Since Oakridge went to the four-day plan in 2009, Kordosky has become an expert and a cheerleader. He’s been invited to districts from Alaska to Florida to explain how it works.

Brandon1 In every person’s day there comes a time when it needs to be spiced up by some unordinary event just because it was getting too boring.

Many elementary schools have a time during the day called recess, where the children go outside and can run around and play. As students move into middle school, however, recess is usually not continued.
