As a student who's been privileged to have been in the academy for the past four years, I can honestly say block schedule system is what enriched my academic experience here. The extra time in each period allowed us to have fulfilling internships, science labs, and more time for classroom instruction. And seven periods? I don't think either of these changes are fair to the current academy students who are being blind-sided with these sporadic adjustments. I am thankful for the experience I've had at the academy, but disappointed in the fact that the future classes will not be able to say the same.

Changing the block schedule will take away a great amount of learning time. In my past experience with a seven period day, I have noticed how even teachers complain about it. It is an inconvenience and disadvantage. An hour and thirty minutes provides plenty of time for lessons, class discussions and activities. If our learning time is cut short, there is a chance that the students will comprehend and retain less informatitions. Forty five minutes per class is not sufficient to meet the students' academic needs. There are times when reteaching a lesson is necessary, our block schedule allows this to be possible, unlike a seven period day schedule. Having to go to seven classes a day, will be streneuous for all the students. We will be forced to complete our seven periods homework in a day, and worst of all, our afterschool study time will have to be cut short in order to meet the requirements of seven classes a day. Block schedule is what the students need to have a sucessful, and less stressful high school experience. Let's keep our block schedule, it is what all hurricanes need.

By changing hightower's current block schedule it limits the homework time and cuases students to have seven classes of homework to do in one day instead of have two days to complete the assignment. This change will also reduce instructional time in which students need in order to fully understand a concept
