Classroom Time

I think that the 180 days video is fairly accurate. Over the past few years the administration at my school has decreased the number of assemblies due to the amount of class time that is missed during the year. The school was having an assembly a month along with all the other special events that occurred during the year (book sales, flower sales, pictures, etc.). Many times teachers were missing the same periods, which caused some periods to be a few weeks behind. This caused the school rotate periods during testing and put assemblies during all parts of the day to prevent student from missing the same subject repeatedly. I think administrator need to be cognizant of when they schedule assemblies so the students don’t miss the same subject repeatedly.
