The Piute County School District is set to move to a 4-day school week next year after the Utah State Board of Education last week approved a request for the transition.
JUNCTION, Piute County — The Piute County School District is set to move to a four-day school week next year after the Utah State Board of Education last weekDistrict Superintendent Koby Willis said that the move was made for a few different reasons. One of those, Willis said, is historic. The district operated on a four-day school week for about 20 years from the 1980s to 2002.
Additionally, a four-day school week would allow students to be exposed to more, something that Willis said is a big priority for the district. "The bus ride from Koosharem to Piute High School is one of the longest bus rides in Utah," the district wrote in its"The four-day school week removes well over 50 hours on a school bus for these students in a school year. This is valuable time that could be used for family, homework or other activities that contribute to a child's development."
