[quote=Anonymous][quote]Minimum - most schools have more, including MCPS. PreK - 2 - 4.75 hr Grade 3 -5 - 4.75 hr Grade 6 -8 - 4.00 hr Garde 9 - 12 - 4.00 hr[/quote] I'm not sure it's "more" in many (if not most) schools. The middle/high school schedule is based on 8 periods but many schools only have 7 and/or count lunch as a full period. That means 3 hours on two days per week and 4 hours on the other two days. With a few exceptions, I don't think these students have sync learning on Wednesdays either. If MD says 17.5 hours a week of sync instruction, and some 7 period schools are scheduling 14 hours (7 classes each meeting twice a week), that's a non-trivial difference.[/quote]
