[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why not well thought out? It’s been less than a week. [/quote]
Typical block scheduling does not equal what SJC is implementing.
SJC - There are 5 blocks a day all of equal length (60 minutes)
1 block is lunch for 9th and 10th graders 
1 block is lunch for 11th and 12th graders

The school is not set up to support this lunch structure and it was willful ignorance to think it could work as there is no place for the students to go when they are "flexing" when the other grade is eating - so you have 1 grade wondering around trying find a place to hang for 30 minutes. 
Many students buy lunch - and 30 minutes is not enough time for everyone to get through the line and eat their food

It is a mess - the school knew it was going to be a mess - and they did not care

That block schedule sounds like what we had at Holy Cross back in the day, and it worked fine.

SJC probably just needs to work out the kinks and everyone will adjust.
