I am wondering when everyone's kids start school and when they finish for the day. What are their lunch breaks like etc.
This is the schedule for my girls. Tegan is in the 8th grade and Kelsey in the fifth. They go to a j/k to 8th grade school.
First period is 8:30
at 9:17 they have QDPA (quality daily physical activity)only on the days they don't have gym
Second period is 9:35
10:22-11:02 they have NAB
Then they have 3&4 period
12:36 until 1:16 is second NAB
5&6 period
2:50 is school dismissal.
It feels like the days are getting shorter then when i was a kid. We started at 8:50 and we were done at 3:50 but we also had an hour lunch and 2-20 minute recess breaks.
I feel the schedule works pretty well.
The school also changed the art/music this year. ODD will not have music until January b/c she has art twice a week. In January she will have music twice a week and no art. This is the same thing they have done with geography and history for the last few years.
Also the Ontario teachers federation have just announced starting next Sept kids will only get two reports cards instead of three. I am not thrilled about this b/c it is hard enough to get information from some teachers about how DDs are doing.
