Description: District Trying To Save Money

Look here:
Rising fuel costs forcing school district to cut Mondays.
Only problem is now the other four days are each an hour longer. What do you guys think? Ashita Genki Ni Naare - May 14, 2008 02:00 AM (GMT)
I wouldn't mind doing that... I could live with 3 day weekends any time.

Same here.
An extra hour of school might even help in a few ways, like you could have a study period where you finish homework or catch up on late work.

I would love that.
But..it's not like an extra hour would be the same as a regular school week.
That would be five extra hours of school per week, and theres seven hours of school everyday, so we'd still be like three hours behind than what we would be if we had regular school weeks.
Cause, Seven x Five would be Thirty Five.
And, Eight x four would be Thirty Two.
So like Three hours difference.

Maaan i wish they did that here. :|
and we kind of already have like 2 hours in each
of my 2 classes i have :)

We should get friday off. :D

He has no control over that.
It's all of OPEC's doing.

It's more Wall Street speculators that are causing oil's Bull Run right now. Bush can't really do jack to cause an immediate price drop.
They're buying oil contracts like crazy because of the bottom dropping out of the dollar and they're flocking to oil to keep from losing their butts because of it.

theeey should still apply there here.
my school is low on moneey and
should slack off a day. :]
so yea.
well if other mayors see what minnesota is doing
with their district to save money with one school, then
they'll take his idea, and do it all over the WORLD.
muhaha *hopes* [:
