School Schedule Change

Last week the school schedule was from 8am to 2:30pm. This week it has been changed from 8am to 2pm. The main reason for the schedule change was due to parents feedback to the school administration. It was already a tight fit to squeeze in 8 subjects in the previous school timing, now it is even more challenging for teachers to cover important concepts with precious minutes taken away from each period.

Last week's 4th grade schedule looked like this:
1. Math
2. Arabic
3. Language Arts (Reading)
4. Recess (5 minutes)
5. Language Arts (Grammar/Comprehension/Writing)
6. Qur'anic Studies (Technology on Wednesday)
7. Lunch (10 minutes)
8. Science
9. Social Studies
10. Prayer
11. Islamic Studies (P.E. on Tuesday & Thursday)

This week students will not get recess but will have a 15-minute lunch time.

All praise be to Allah SWT I'm glad that I have breaks in the morning and at about 1pm to pump breastmilk. I am so looking forward to the Eid break from September 6-10 so that I can nurse DD2 at home during the last week of the month of fasting.
