[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Every school had to figure out how to honor the promise of 1 hour of planning a day.   With Specials blocks 45 minutes for upper grades at many schools, they've had to be creative.  Even for the younger grades there were issues. Though they had music and PE back to back for 30 minutes each  2 times per week, and art weekly for an hour, that left 2 days uncovered.  The larger the school, the more teachers/classes that needed coverage. It was not possible to just add time to the Specialists schedule as there are not enough hours in the day.  As a teacher, and parent, I'm giving the administration the benefit of the doubt they did the best they could this year. I'm thinking there may be more consistency next year.[/quote]

My school added in a math lab for students to do math games and counseling so students have quite a lot of specials to go to![/quote]

I'm the PP you quoted. My children's school added a STEAM Lab. The school I teach at added a tech lab class and guidance and library were added to the Master Schedule too. It used to be that only Music, Art and PE were on the schedule.[/quote]
