[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With multiple rescess, long lunches, PE everday and other expanded specials..when are academics included?  I am sure some classroom activities are more efficient with smaller classes.  Is the class day longer?  The amount of time in public school seems short so I am having trouble imaging more non academics added..not saying they are not important too..but is the school day longer to accomodate?[/quote]

Reading, Language Arts, Science, History, Math

40 minutes each LA 8-8:40, 20 minute break/recess, Reading 9-9:40, 20 minutes Break/recess/snack/etc, Science 10-10:40 (with outdoor activities), 20 minute break/recess, History 11-11:40, recess, lunch until 1:00, PE 1-1:45, Math 2-3.

Okay I really just made that up because I don't knew the exact schedule but explain why other schools don't have time for breaks, Art, Band, and PE.

Why can't reading happen outside on a nice day or Science involve outdoor activities.

I don't pay $30K or anywhere near that. I want my kids to learn to love learning. I don't want them to go to an Ivy or other crazy notions that are immagined about why I send my kids to a private school.

I just don't want my kids to hate school.[/quote]
