School, a place where education takes place, and students eager to go home after the first hour. School, where folks meet new people and become friends with. School, where gangs fight each other with slaps and shrieky voices.

Okay, enough with the small facts.

Usually, most students go to school 8 hours of class with at least 30 to 60 minutes of break and lunch. Here's a fact, we only remember about 10 minutes what our teacher(s) taught us in class. Seriously, my teacher even said so himself. He even said we should learn one subject a day, since it'll be easier to remember. And that each school day should just be a few hours(like 5 or 4) long.

I kind of agree with this, but I also object this. Discuss?

I disagree, because some people [like me!] are way to ADD to handle 4-5 hours of the same thing. However, I do thing that schools shoul start later in the day, because Harvard did a study that showed grades would rise by 80% if schools started at 11am or 12pm.

i use to have ADD (i use the terms "use to" cuz it turns out that i didn't have it, i was just too lazy to do work in class.) they found this out in my senior year.

but we use to do at my school was the 4th block where we had only 4 periods a day (that sounds funny) and then had 4 new periods the next semester.

then they changed it up a bit by having a A B schedule. it was cool at first cuz that gave you an extra day to do your homework cuz you didn't feel like doing it when you got home, but then sometimes it would get confusing.

ITs gotten worst we have 8 classes a day that means 45 minutes for each class. My grades have droped a minimum well thats because I dont do work in my classes but when it was 4 periods a day my grades were high so I would say 4 classes a day is better.

yeah but you have to think of it this way with 4 classes your in the same class longer, and why is that a downfall you ask? well what if you don't like the one class your in(this doesn't apply to pito since he's such a nerd and loves school) well with 8 classes your only in that one class you hate so much for 1 hour.

well thats one way to look at it
