PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
To judge whether the pilot is instructionally viable and compliant, I need clarity on staffing and operational feasibility for both the instructional week and any optional programming, and I want to surface any hidden labor or vendor constraints that could force redesigns or create unplanned obligations.

We've identified potential challenges related to our current staffing shortages, including 41 teacher vacancies and a 62% substitute fill rate. The proposed 4-day instructional week could exacerbate these challenges, particularly for special education services. Additionally, we need to consider the potential labor implications, including contractual obligations or stipends for schedule changes. We should also assess the budget implications, including potential savings or additional costs associated with transportation and labor premiums. To finalize our recommendation, we need to weigh these factors against the potential benefits of the proposed schedule."
