Recently we sent out a survey to get your opinion of Junction Hill School moving to a 4 day school week. The surveys have been counted up and the results show 75% of the surveys we received support the idea of implementing a 4 day school week. The complete results are below. There were several good comments and questions that were submitted and we are working on a second survey to present additional survey questions all in an effort to ensure Parents/Guardians are aware of what transitioning to a 4 day school week could entail. Our goal is to ensure parents/guardians have sufficient information to express an informed opinion before undertaking a transition such as this. Thank you to everyone who responded.
