Daily Schedule

Your daily schedule is based on a modified block schedule. You will take eight classes a semester, attending four 75-minute classes each day in a rotating schedule.  

The classroom is just where it starts.

Five young women in school uniforms stand behind a table with a sign that says "Have a brew-tiful day!" in front of a classroom or kitchen setting with cabinets and string lights.

 

Activity Period

Every day, you have a 45-minute Activity Period. During this time, all teachers are available if you want to set up a meeting with them, get ahead on homework, makeup a test, study with a friend. If you are all caught up on your work, stop by the Bearista Cafe for a mid-morning pick-me-up!

“Together” (a.k.a. Insieme)

For 20 minutes every day, in House meetings, Mentor Groups, or all-school assemblies, students from all grade levels share what it means to be a Bear. 

For four years, we grew up alongside each other. We celebrated together, stressed together, laughed together, and sometimes cried together. Katie M. Class of 2026
