SCHOOL LEADERSHIP 2.0 GROUPS
Please respond to the latest School Leadership 2.0 survey
Most campuses have a football, basketball, band, cheerleading, and dance team, but is there a student demographic these organizations are missing? Perhaps, e-sports is the perfect solution to provide a community for a group of young people who may be overlooked by traditional sports programming. Would you be in favor of adding an e-sports gaming alternative to your extracurricular menu of activities?

The number of Americans who support a four-day school week with longer school days is up dramatically from 25% in a PDK/Gallup Poll in 2003 to 53% now, a roughly twofold increase. Assuming contractual problems could be solved, would you favor this change in your school/district?

Yes---------94.1%

Where is the brain science to support this move?I am aware of some schools that have 4 days of classes, but the 5th day is dedicated to Athletics and Extra Curricular. Would any other job move to a 4-day week, 10 hours per day, and multiple shifts? |
|
The concept would assist with teacher burnout. Staff and students will look forward to a three-day weekend on a regular basis. |
|
Students are out all day already, many in after-school care. Learning would be better for them so long as activity and movement are included. For 5th day, creative age- appropriate community proj., sports, team proj., extra help, other assignments. |
|
Yes. I agree with the PDK poll |
|
I support this effort if there is a fifth day of enrichment options/programs such as the arts, day camp, leisure sports, community service activities, apprenticeships, travel opportunities, etc. This would make school seem more "real." |
