At the Federal Hocking High School we operate with a block schedule. That means that we have four 80 minute classes with an hour luch. a piece instead of seven or more that are only 45 minutes each. That means that we have more time in each class to do homework and learn more doing so.

There are a lot of advantages to operating on a block schedule:

• The students get to know the teachers better.
• The students get to know other classmates better.
• More class time means that the students have more time to do larger hands-on projects.
• Also with only four classes a day then the students will not have as much homework.
