[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MCPS elementary schools: 6 hours 25 minutes. Howard County elementary schools: 6 hours 30 minutes. FCPS elementary schools: 6 hours 25 minutes. The public elementary school I went to: 6 hours 30 minutes. Which elementary schools in the US have a 6 hour 55 minute day? [/quote] One of my kids is in private elementary and their day is 8am to 3:30pm = 7.5hrs. They have a 15min snack break at 9:45am, 50min PE 3x a week that is outside unless it is below 35 degrees. 65-70min for lunch and recess, foreign language, and once a week collaborations. My other child is in public with 25min lunch IF the teacher gets them down there on time. 20min of recess, One 25min PE class a week that is ALWAYS indoors. Honestly, ES needs to be extended so there is time for other things besides drilling facts. Get the kids some food, play, fresh air, free time with friends. It would make class time so much easier for teachers and students.[/quote]
