Elizabeth Spilman is my daughter, my family like many others often times have short work days on Friday but never on Wednesdays, I would like the chance to have my daughter's minimum day be an opportunity to spend quality family time together

Parents, staff and the children would love to get back to minimum days on Friday.

Sorry to be contrarian, but due to after school care (not located on-site) being offered for Wed. half days (and not Fridays) it would be very difficult to make this work as a working parent.

Yes! This will also reward the hard working teachers for the days and hours they put in, including the unpaid ones. Not to mention absences might go down with the shorter pre-weekend school day.

Our two daughters are in preschool now but will eventually be attending schools in the Soquel school district. Please help our family have longer weekends and more family time together by changing the schedule. Thanks!

Yes, please bring back the 1/2 day Friday. This worked so much better for so many reasons. Santa Cruz Gardens

I have 3 kids. Fridays would allow vacations to start earlier, help parents avoid extra child care and support teachers

Yes!!! Change it back to Fridays! 1/2 day Wed is so cumbersome for students and teachers, not mention what it does to working parents. Schedule tests for Friday's then no one will miss school!

Main Street. Half day on Fridays is so much better for teachers, kids and working families.

Please change the minimum day back to Friday. I work Mon-Fri specifically so that I could spend more time with my kids. This shift has meant that my work day on Wednesday is filled with Doc/dentist etc appts, which has been very stressful for me and made my work on Wednesday not as efficient as it could be...adding more stress to our family.

I personally feel having minimum days on Fridays will help with better attendance numbers all around for the district as well as for families needing the extra time for longer weekends to deal with family matters out of town as well as personal getaways. Thank you for the consideration.
