A school district outside Denver has decided to shorten its week to four daysfrom Tuesday to Friday, and the first school year on this new timetable just started, CBS Denver reports. It began on Tuesday, August 14, because the day students get off is everyones least favorite: Monday.

However, there are different voice. Parents may pick up some the cost of this change, though, since many will now need to stay home with their kids. If they go to work, they have to find people to take care of their children. This isnt the first district in the state to introduce a fourday week:55 % of the states schools do this, but most of them are in the countryside, according to The Denver Post. Several school in Oklahoma made the some move earlier this year, and some them told CBS News Reports that more teachers wanted to teach there after the change.
