Hmmm.. What do you think?

So I was enjoying the beautiful weather we are actually having in Dallas... Can you believe it's in the low 70s this morning? Anyhow, I was sitting outside reading Time and ran across this article... http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1832864,00.html

It's about some school districts across the US that are switching to a 4 day school week to save money on diesel by running the buses less. (They also save money on heating/ac, food, etc. that they don't have to doll out.) The kids have to go to school an extra hour a day and have every Monday off. Sounds like a good deal for them.. BUT what about those of us that have to work and have to pay extra for our kids to be in day care all day vs. just before and after school? What about those of us that don't use the school districts bus system? Are we just moving the debt from the school districts to the parents who already pay way to much in school taxes? Aren't parents facing the same price increases as the schools? What about those poor babies that already have way to much homework and are already exhausted by the time they get home from a regular school day? What about when these kids have to go into the real work force and have to work 5 days a week, is that going to be a culture shock or what?

I'm not saying I agree or disagree with the proposal... I just have lots of questions...
