SUMMARY:Breakthrough or Setback? Examining the Four-Day School Week in Missouri
DESCRIPTION:Register Here\nThe four-day school week has become increasingly popular in Missouri in recent years. As of fall 2023\, approximately 28 percent of all Missouri public school districts have adopted this schedule. But how much do we know about its impact on student achievement\, district finances\, teacher recruitment and retention\, or parental satisfaction? The short answer is: not as much as you might expect. \nAt this free event\, Show-Me Institute Director of Research James Shuls and Policy Analyst Avery Frank will share their latest research on the impact of the four-day school week\, explore how Missouri parents feel about it\, and more. \nRelated Publications\nA Systematic Literature Review of the Four-day School Week \nFive for Me: A Survey of Missourians Regarding the Four-day School Week \nAbout the Speakers \n \nJames V.
