Rock Ridge to keep discussing possibility of 4-day week
VIRGINIA/EVELETH—After a lengthy discussion, the Rock Ridge School Board will hold a working session at 5 p.m. Nov. 23 so board members can talk out the parameters of possibly going to a four-day week. While the board has not authorized going to a four-day week, Superintendent Noel Schmidt brought up the idea of studying it as a possible budget reduction. Any possible decision on going to a four-day week would have to be made by April. According to Schmidt’s rough draft timeline, a series of community meetings would be held next month to gather feedback and advice from the public. Meetings (three at each school) would be held at Laurentian, North Star and Parkview elementaries, along with Rock Ridge High School. Schmidt said once all of the information is gathered from the public, it will be “clustered’’ into big themes/big concerns. That is better than deciding what the themes are before the public meetings. He estimated there would be three-five clusters, and committees would be formed to look at them and come up with potential answers and recommendations before bringing it back to the full school board. The different clusters could possibly be on transportation, academics or athletics, he added.
