Default school system feeling hurt of economy.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080818/...ols_hard_times

some districts are making the school week to 4 days and extend each class by 10 minutes for each class on those days.

You could rotate employees so they work either monday and friday. Team A works Monday a week, get's the following Monday off, Team B works friday, gets the following Friday off. Alternate or something.
