The Mesquite ISD is joining the list of North Texas school districts considering the switch to a 4-day work week to attract more teachers.
There’s always the concern about how parents of young children could work and have their kids home while they’re at work. Mesquite surveyed parents and talked about opening one school for parents who needed sitters, something they’ve done in Mineral Wells.Still, it’s opened the door to discussions of the steps districts are taking to try to keep teachers, even at the expense of inconveniencing parents.
"When teachers tell you they're burned out they're tired what that is code for is I'm being asked to do everything and then I' 'm being paid whatever I'm being paid," said HD Chambers, of the Texas School Alliance, a group that represents some of the largest school districts in Texas. Chambers said it's not just money, but all of the pressure we put on teachers, and schools have to try to alleviate it.
Little Elm ISD tried to move to a 4-day week but the parents there weren’t happy with the idea so they moved away from it. They still are struggling to fill open positions and are going back to the drawing board.This article tagged under:
