Benefits of Our Block Scheduling
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. We use 4 x 4 block scheduling, meaning that you take four classes during the fall semester and 4 classes during the spring semester. Each class lasts 85 minutes. Teachers appreciate block scheduling because it means fewer students in each class, allowing for more individualized instruction. It prepares you for college life, too. Block scheduling is the way colleges schedule classes.
