Superintendent George Mendoza briefed the board on ideas under consideration for a possible four-day school week and outlined a timeline the district team intends to follow for study and community engagement.
The discussion was exploratory: Mendoza presented the concept as an item for further evaluation rather than an action item. Board members raised concerns and noted risks and potential benefits, including impacts on staff schedules, extracurricular activities and family needs; no formal motion or vote was taken.
The topic was placed on the list of future agenda items for deeper review; the board scheduled additional near-term items including Strategic Plan and the 5‑Year Maintenance Plan for coming meetings.
