In northwest Georgia, the Chattooga County School District has been operating on a four-day school week for over a decade. The district, located about 90 miles from Atlanta, adopted this schedule as a cost-saving measure in 2010. The four-day week has been found to have positive effects, including improved morale and academic performance, as well as reduced discipline issues.

After briefly switching to a five-day model, the district returned to the four-day schedule. Further details about the Chattooga County School District's experience with the four-day week are available from local news sources, including the story of its implementation and impact on students.
