We have been busy e-mailing colleagues from other schools who currently follow block scheduling. We have also contacted schools who are transitioning to the new schedule.

We have researched the pros and cons of the different types of block scheduling, and there are many different opinion pages that give both the teachers' and students' perspectives along with the research to supprt the transition. Google block scheduling and read just a few opinions.

Below are a few examples of different types of block scheduling to consider.

 * Monday, Wednesday, Friday - traditional 46 minute periods **
 * Tuesday, Thursday - Block for 90 minutes (assuming no split schedule, 4 per day) **


 * Lunches would be split (45 minute segments or other) to allow for clubs, tutoring, or mentoring for underclassmen, with the possibility of upperclassmen being rewarded with a longer lunch. **
