"Tenemos medio día" sounds a bit strange for me. I'd say "tenemos la mitad del día".

I'd say

"Tenemos medio día."

(The word "día" is masculine, so "medio" should be masculine too)

I asked my friend from Spain this question one time, and I believe what he said was like, "día de mitad".

Tenemos un medio día. We have a half-day. Hemos un medio día- We had a half-day.

Hemos is we have. Not like tener. And it's not past tense. - socceryo3, Jun 2, 2010

I'd go with "tenemos medio día" but "tenemos la mitad del día" would be ok also.
