LUBBOCK, Texas (KCBD) - After a 7-0 vote at Tuesday’s board meeting, Lockney ISD is moving to a four-day week for the 2021-2022 school year.
Students will go to class Tuesday through Friday from 7:40 a.m. to 4:15 p.m., adding about 45 minutes to their school day.
Superintendent Jim Baum says the main reason for the change was to give teachers an extra day to plan.
Right now, they only get about 45 minutes a day to grade and prepare lessons for up to 90 students.
He says many teachers take that work home, taking them away from their families.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Thursday announced that the Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM), in partnership with the Texas Military Department (TMD), is deploying State Mobile Vaccination Teams to five additional underserved counties this week: Motley, Glasscock, Kenedy, Terrell, and McMullen.
SMVTs previously deployed to DeWitt, Marion, Real, Sherman, and Starr counties last week as part of the State Mobile Vaccine Pilot Program, where they vaccinated over 550 Texans. Thank you to our partners at TDEM, TMD, the Texas A&M Engineering Extension Service, and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension for working together to ensure underserved counties have access to COVID-19 vaccines, said Abbott. The State Mobile Vaccine Pilot Program is an important part of our work to get more vaccines in arms and ensure the health and safety of our communities.
