[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SFS HS parent, school starts at 8AM, block schedule with some breaks throughout the day, so every day is slightly different. Not every class meets ever day.

Lunch is 12PM, the day is generally done around 3PM.

If they play a sport, practices generally go ~3:30-5/5:30PM, although that can vary by sport and season. If they have an away game, that time will likely go later. Kids who do theater or chorus will be there later, some other activities daily.

I always enjoy seeing kids around when I go for athletic events. My child loves the school, is good about using break times for homework which helps manage commitments on days when sports runs late (and is far better than I would have ever been).[/quote]

Thank you! What about homework over breaks?[/quote]

Not PP - but parent of recent grad (so others can weigh in on whether this changed this year) - Sidwell has midterm exams are after winter break - so it is not a true break from work. There were no breaks completely free of homework.[/quote]
