Parents and school staff gathered last Wednesday, Jan. 29, at the Phillip England Center for the Performing Arts for a special forum to discuss the pros and cons of a potential four-day school week.
A Camp Verde Unified School District leadership team fielded questions from the crowd, many of whom had concerns about the need to switch to a four-day school week with Friday being the off day.

The staff at the various schools seemed to have a majority that support the potential move, according to a survey conducted at the schools.
