Georgia schools switching to 4-day weeks
Georgia schools switching to 4-day weeks
Posted 30m ago
WARNER ROBINS, Ga. (AP) — With budget cuts looming, more Georgia school systems are considering switching to four-day school weeks.
Peach County took the step last fall when officials decided to hold classes Tuesdays through Fridays. It was a way to fill a nearly $800,000 budget shortfall. Several school systems around the state are considering or planning a similar move.
Peach County officials have estimated they saved $313,000 in transportation and utilities costs by making the schedule change.
Since the decision was made, Peach County has become an example of the four-day week for systems across the state.
C.B. Mathis, assistant superintendent of operations in Peach County, has received calls from at least 20 school systems seeking information about the change.
