Our Daily Schedule
80-Minute Classes and an 8:30 am Start Time
The first class begins at 8:30am. Formerly, classes began at 8:00am. On Wednesdays, classes don't start until 9:00am. Our 80-minute classes allow for deeper, more experiential learning. In addition to lectures, teachers have time to hold in-class activities and follow up on those activities within the same class period. Classes are less rushed, allowing teachers and students time to fully dive into the subject material. With fewer classes per day (four instead of six) there is time saved in less commuting between classes, settling in and winding down. Consequentially, with just four classes per day, there is also less homework to navigate each night – students can better focus on the homework they do have, leaving them less exhausted and stressed out.
Our dining hall is open for those who need to be on campus early due to public school district bus schedules – those students can still save time by eating breakfast in our dining hall instead of at home.
