The 4-Day School Week with Dr. Claudia Singkornrat

Teachers in America

Across the country, more schools are considering a 4-day school week. But how would that look like for students and teachers?
Today we are talking to Dr. Claudia Singkornrat, a Florida science teacher at Pompano Beach High School, the only school in Broward County Public Schools that offers a 4-day school week. Claudia will give insight on her school’s 4-day schedule and how it impacts student learning. Plus, she’ll share how she made the switch from a successful career as a chiropractor to classroom teacher, and how she provides real-life science experiences to foster a love for learning.
