Collegiate block scheduling is how we schedule our classes. It mirrors the way you'll schedule your college classes. It's simple. Students take four classes during the fall semester and four different classes during the spring semester. Each class is 85 minutes, so you can really dig into the subject. With block scheduling, you can earn 31.5 units of academic credit for graduation.
We love block scheduling at St. Ursula because it provides our students with time to really grasp a subject and to accomplish in-depth lab work. Teachers appreciate block scheduling because it means fewer students in each class, allowing for more individualized instruction.
