Over the last several years, some school districts are trying to save costs by going to a four day school week. This does not work in states that mandate a certain number of days of instruction, but does in stares that mandate a certain number of hours of instruction. Oklahoma and Kansas mandate a certain number of hours, so the four day week is possible.
Altoona-Midway is considering a four day week starting next year. There will be a town hall meeting in early March.
