Wyandotte Schools adopt modified 4-day school week
WYANDOTTE, Okla. — Beginning next school term, Wyandotte students will have a modified four-day school week, school superintendent Brad Wade said on Friday. 'The modified school week has been very well received by students and parents,' Wade said. Wade said students will go for the same number of days, 165. 'We have rearranged the calendar,' Wade said. 'We are adding a couple of days at the beginning and end of the school calendar and reducing the length of Fall Break and Thanksgiving Break.' The only five-day school weeks are August 25, December 15, and January 12. The other Mondays during that stretch are the Fall and Thanksgiving Break weeks, designated for special district activities, such as Wyandotte Nation Days and similar celebrations and cultural events. From March until the end of school in May 2026, Wyandotte schools will follow an early release schedule. Students will attend school five days a week, but are released from school on Friday at 1 p.m. Wade said teacher recruitment is one of the benefits of this new calendar. 'It is a new reality that education is not a career that very many young people are going into now in Oklahoma,' Wade said. 'This is placing a strain on the ability of schools to recruit new teachers. In talking with other area schools that have gone to the 4-day calendar, that is the biggest plus: there are more quality applicants for available positions.' Other benefits include fewer discipline problems because the weeks are shorter, and there is less frustration. On those Mondays, the district will actually be running a bus to pick up students and student-athletes for their practices.
