    As a parent in Duncan Schools, many students, parents, and teachers enjoyed the 4 day week. Due to one class' low test scores, the state recommended we stop and we've wanted it back ever since, but our administration has been reluctant to go back. I'd like to make a suggestion from our experiences here. Make Monday your day off. We had Fridays off, and there are many doctors and dentists closed on Fridays. So teachers and students still took days off. Also, we usually had sports on Fridays, so the buildings could not be completely shut down, and we did not save as much money as could have been. We may be attending Pima schools next year because we are considering a move and we are a big fan of 4 day weel.
