looking back at old threads out of curiosity & found this one
i am currently homeschooled

my parents give me an extra day off every week, as a sort of 'mental health day', meaning i only have 4 days of school a week. it something i really appreciate, and it really helps the school week not drag on as long.
i also enjoy working ahead in school by chipping away at the next days school at small intervals throughout the day, because it helps me not feel as overwhelmed by work the next day and by keeping the constant flow of minimal schoolwork instead of work, nothing, work, nothing, also helps me not fall behind as easily.
