The superintendent's decision for the district's change comes as schools across North Texas and beyond are struggling to fill teacher vacancies.
Weekends at schools in a small Texas town at Mineral Wells Independent School District will begin early after implementing a four-day school week starting the 2022-2023 school year.
While a handful of parents expressed their support for the longer weekend, other parents didn't feel the same way. This school year, Mineral Wells ISD is welcoming students back with zero teacher vacancies. It's unclear if the four-day week can be directly attributed to attracting teachers, Kuhn said.He hopes the extra day off will help teachers manage their take-home workload. On Fridays, the district will also offer professional development opportunities for teachers.
