Why Did We Have A Full Day Last Week?

- Back when some of our senior class started at TPAA, our schedule wasn’t like it now is today. We begun Monday off as a full-day, with an even amount of A & B days for the rest of the week. This was normal to us, but upon asking the underclassmen on what they might feel on a schedule like that, it sounds like witchcraft.

• This begs the question “Why did we have a full day?” Ms. Price states:

“The all-day was scheduled to ensure that we had the same number of A and B days prior to the start of Spring Break. If we didn't do the all-day, then we would have had an extra A day. We want to keep the A and B days balanced to the extent possible.”

• This makes obvious sense as we don’t want to have an unequal amount of study/curriculum time amongst our classes.

• This full-day was originally supposed to be on the last day before Spring Break, the 18th. However the date was changed to accommodate Career Day, which was unfortunately cancelled.

• This full day seemed to have a mixed review amongst the students. Some absolutely loved it, meanwhile others hated it.

• Though it was hard to adapt to a temporary change, there is no doubt it was necessary for our balanced education as TPAA Griffins.
