Fixed Times

[Amy Davis <Alkdlibrary@CS.COM>]

Hello everyone,
I am need of some help.  I have a new principal who insist that I return to a
fixed schedule due to some teachers complaining about the flexible schedule I
had implemented three years ago. These teachers are the ones who do not like
change and therefore would not schedule times in the library no matter how
hard I tried. I would like to know what time limit people who are on a fixed
schedule use.  I have the following number of classes per grade.
K-8
1st-10
2nd-8
3rd-7
4th-6
Special Ed-3

I figured that the older children should have the longer lesson times such as
35-45 minutes, with K having 20. This will also include their checkout time.
I can't have two things going on at the same time in the library so I have to
consolidate their lesson and book swap time. Before they had a separate 15
minutes book swap each week. I also allowed for the students to come and swap
books at any time. But no I only will have open swap from 7:30-8:00 each
morning. I also have to work in a 45 min plan time and a 30 min lunch. So any
suggestions would be most helpful!  By the way I have already searched the
archives and have not found anything that would help my situation.
Thanks in advance.
