Important High School Schedule Information |
Beginning February 25 and February 26, all ninth graders who requested in-person instruction will return to their schools. All other high school students who requested in-person instruction will return to their school on March 2 and March 3.
In order to facilitate this return to in-person instruction, it is necessary for all high school students, whether in-person or virtual, to begin their school day at 7:30 a.m. (or 7:25 a.m. for select high schools) starting February 23. This change in start time will remain in effect until the end of the school year.
Traditionally, high schools follow an odd/even schedule rotation throughout the year. However, due to the unique nature of this year’s schedule, high schools have adjusted their schedules to ensure Tuesday/Thursday and Wednesday/Friday in-person students will be able to see each of their teachers.
Tuesday/Wednesday are consecutive Even Days
Thursday/Friday are consecutive Odd Days
Please check your high school's website for specific daily schedules including bell times for blocks/periods on Even and Odd days.
