In our district we are on an alternating block schedule. We seem to have
discussions on block scheduling at nearly all faculty meetings. For those of
you on a true 4x4 I wanted some feedback on a couple of questions that
repeatedly come up:
1) How do you deal with state assessments for those students who are not in a
math, science, or English class for that semester? Is it a problem?
2) Is there a problem with students accumulating too many electives? For
example, do the students who are in band or vocal both semesters for all four
years receive 8 elective credits (or 16 if they are in both)?
3) How difficult is it for students who transfer into the district that was not
on a true 4x4 or that was on a traditional schedule, or for those transferring
out?
I know there is no perfect schedule, but any feedback you could give me would
be great! Thanks.
