-Anderson County
Rising costs could force Anderson County schools to revert from block scheduling back to conventional scheduling.
The Anderson County Review reports USD 365 board members discussed the pros and cons of block scheduling with Anderson County Junior High School Principal Kenny Kellstadt at their last meeting.
Students currently attend four 87-minute classes under the block scheduling system.If the county should return to traditional scheduling, students will attend seven 50-minute classes.
The hang up is that block scheduling is more expensive because more teachers than traditional scheduling. No decision has been made to this point.
