[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't consider history, science, or language to be specials. I am assuming you are referencing "language arts" when you write "language" and not a foreign language program. I wouldn't consider language arts, or even immersion to be specials. 4th grade: Art once a week, 1 hr each. PE twice a week, 40 min. each Music twice a week, 40 min. each Recess T-F, 20 min. each. There is SCA, strings starting in 4th (those students alternate their strings and music classes), band (starts in 5th) and chorus (starts in 5th).[/quote] I thought this was standard. We are the same as above. The "extras" outside of school time are supported or coordinated by the PTA (and parents pay extra) for Mad Science, Spanish and French. We also have a book club for the older kids, a GEMS (girls in engineering, math, science) and something similar for boys (these are free and lead by a teacher). We often have Girls on the Run. We do not have drama or robotics.[/quote]
