Schools are not like factories, where the goal is production of a certain quantity of a product. A shortened school week will only serve to deprive students of another day of education. Four long days won't be conducive to learning.

Jim Lower Over 900 school districts in the U.S. utilize 4-day school weeks [141 in MO]. Numerous studies: 32+ hours of instructional learning = student success. Districts do save money. Parents, students, and teachers in districts with 4-day school weeks overwhelmingly support it.
