Due to budget cuts in 2009, a school district in a county located in the middle of a South Atlantic state changed from the traditional 5-day school to the 4-day school week. The purpose of this study was twofold: (a) to determine what the job satisfaction was for teachers and administrators whose schools had changed from the 5-day school week to the 4-day school week; (b) document a relationship between changing from the 5-day school week to the 4-day school and teacher, administrator, and student attendance. A total of 183 teachers and 11 administrators from the school district were surveyed using the Teacher Job Satisfaction Questionnaire (TJSQ) (Lester, 1982). The analysis of the data revealed that the job satisfaction of teachers and administrators was positive following the change from the 5-day school week to the 4-day school week. The analysis of the attendance data showed a decrease in the number of absences of teachers, administrators and students after changing from the 5-day school week to the 4-day day school week. This study could have implications for school districts with similar demographics.
