FHN Studies the Trimester

Since R&D already has the blog established as a forum for people to share ideas, this blog will also serve as a way to share information and comments about the trimester schedule.



If you have questions for R&D to research about trimesters, please send an email to the PLC members. As we get questions and find information or answers, we will post them here. R&D PLC members are:

Mary Baker
Kathy Carron
Aaron Manfull
Kim Rastberger
Bryan Spencer
Jon Travis
Steve Willott



For starters, here are some links to the schools that the High School Time Task Force visited in August 2007.
