Four-day school week?

December 10, 2008
Associated Press

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- Should public schools in New York state be given the flexibility to change to a four-day week? That's the subject of a public hearing being held today in Albany by the state Senate Education Committee.

Lawmakers will be gathering information on the pros and cons of giving schools the option to switch to a four-day school week or other types of flexible scheduling.

Does this mean the teachers will receive less pay?

And does this have to be approved by the teacher's union first?
