Changing the school week from five days to four could be the solution to many problems for students and even teachers. A three-day weekend is good for students to have more time to relax or catch up on work. By having less day's students will be less prone to miss school since there are less days to miss "reported up to a 20% increase in student attendance" (Ayres). ). The 4-day week doesn't only help student but also administration and teachers, there has been reports that it lowers the financial costs of running the school district "reducing transportation costs by up to 20% by shifting the schedule… potential savings to food programs and other important areas of infrastructure" (Ayres).
