[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wouldn’t going back to all classes every day mean a longer school day? You have to make up the instruction minutes for all the time you spend changing classes.[/quote] Not necessarily. In APS the high school day ended at 2:10 through the early 2000s and the lunch periods were longer then too.[/quote] Did they have so many days off school? Doubt it. APS also didn’t use to do 2 full weeks of winter break.[/quote] Winter break started on christmas eve and ended new year's day. There were far fewer days off and practically no teacher work days. Summer was also longer by about one or two weeks. The state-mandated hours for time in school has not changed. [/quote]
