Flexible Block Scheduling: It Works for Us!
Huff, A. Leroy
NASSP Bulletin, v79 n571 p19-22 May 1995
After investigating alternatives, a Missouri high school adopted the eight-block flexible scheduling model. Instead of meeting 45-60 minutes every day, classes now meet 94 minutes every other day. Staff and students are enthusiastic. Longer instructional periods allow teachers to develop key concepts and use diverse learning activities and permit students better course selection. (MLH)
