    • نبذة مختصرة :
      After months of debate, Rhode Island policymakers have approved a plan to lengthen the instructional day for students. The state board of regents for elementary and secondary education voted 8-2 on June 10, 2004 to mandate that all students receive a daily average of at least 5½ hours of instruction. The policy, which differs somewhat from a plan offered by Commissioner of Education Peter Me Walters this past winter, will take effect statewide in the 2007-08 school year. Low-performing districts identified for state intervention, however, must meet the requirement by 2005-06.
