This kid will start pushing this boundary in like 3 weeks (like every kid pushes every damn boundary all the time) and then OP will have a problem on their hands, when the kid decides that OP is toothless.
You could try to make up some other shit to cover for it, how school told them that the kid needs to do chores at home for those two days or something. With their system it’d make sense to have a plan for this situation.
Or you just enjoy it while it lasts and drop it when it fails
At some point the kid will talk to other kids and find out they don’t attend school on weekends either. Unless they hate school that much that they don’t socialize with other kids which would be worrying as well
I totally could send them to school on the weekend.
Saturday is when the schools around here typically have detention. I’ll just email the school and have the kid go to detention. Then on Sunday: Sunday school at a church.
That’s all fine and dandy until they misbehave and you can’t follow through by sending them to school on the weekend.

Then it’s time to gaslight the kid
“The other kids are lying to you”
This will help for a healthy development
I’d also tell the kid they’re imagining it
