I am in strong belief that there should be no school on Fridays, and longer school days Monday through Thursday. As a student, I find with the amount of work required for each class in a day, we are very rushed. Many science labs have to be completed over multiple days, and teachers sometimes skip valuable information which they never get back to because they forget to cover it the next class. With a longer school day Monday through Thursday, this could be avoided. Also, with three days to recover on the weekend, children would be more rested. A last idea would be school sports, and the concern over how late they would go with longer days. Friday could become a major sport day to help alleviate this problem. No school on Friday has many benefits.
