19When schools switched from a 6-day school week to a 5-day week, for instance, vacation times shrunk, because the number of mandatory total school days remained high.Raha nosoloina 6 andro ao anatin'ny herinandro ny fianarana 5 andro ao anatin'ny herinandro, mihena ny fotoan'ny fialan-tsasatra, satria mbola ambony dia ambony ny fitambaran'ny andro tsy maintsy hianarana.
