[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am really confused. How was TPMS doing 8 periods? Do they have a longer school day? Was it accomplished via block scheduling? Why can’t they keep the arts ( band/orchestra) with 7 periods? [/quote] They have four periods a day with a block schedule. Magnet kids are one third of the school and will no longer be able to take a language and an arts elective. Band will still exist but be severely weakened due to losing many of the best students and the excellent band director has already indicated she will quit. One of the only reasons band and orchestra worked so well was the fantastic and very popular block schedule.[/quote]
