Revising Fayette County high school schedules from six periods per day to seven is proving “overwhelmingly beneficial” to students, according to an analysis by Assistant Superintendent of Student Achievement Terry Oatts.
His May 4 presentation to the Board of Education outlined the pros and cons of the new schedule, which was implemented this school year at four of the county’s five schools. Oatts cited increased teacher collaboration and planning time as well as greater course flexibility for students as major benefits.
McIntosh High School was allowed to opt out and offers only six periods.
