How a school day could look

I've interviewed hundreds of people over the last decade about how schools in the United States often choose to structure time. Most often, I pose the question to people in the places I visit, "Can you explain how the school day is structured, and why?"

Whose Opinion Matters?

I've found that many people working within schools are usually split into two camps of thought:

1. The schedule is fine just the way it is.
2. We definitely could do things differently . . . but never quite get around to it. (Adam Provost at Edutopia)
