4-DAY SCHOOL WEEK SURVEY Lake County School District 7 is currently conducting research to determine the possibility of adopting a four-day school week model. LCSD7 views this as an important community decision and we ask for your support in giving the district feedback. If LCSD7 were to convert to a four-day school week there would be changes to our calendar and potentially our school schedules to conform to state requirements related to instructional time. The survey will be open one week and will close next Friday, May 5th. LCSD7 needs your feedback and perspective on this important topic!
