Ok educators, who uses a hybrid HS schedule with some classes that meet daily and others on rotating block? I’d love to connect with you! @massp @michEDchat

@msbearce What on Earth is that?

@jamiedewitt @massp Hey Jamie! We’re in year 2 of a block at Pinckney. Happy to chat.

Hey @massp - does anyone run a version of a 4x4 block schedule for high school? We are looking into this transition and I would like to be connected to a few schools who successfully implemented the schedule. TIA #miched
