Though Seattle Public Schools just changed school schedules this year, another change is ahead next year. And it’s just launched a survey asking you how you want to see that change made. First, here’s what the change is about:
As part of the Collective Bargaining Agreement process, SEA and SPS agreed to add 20 minutes to the school day in 2017-18 and provide one hour per week of teacher collaboration time.
As the district plans to make this schedule adjustment, we want to hear from families and stakeholders on how the additional time should be added and how and when to schedule the collaboration time.
The district sees six options for making the changes – they’re all listed on this page of the district website. You can officially make your choice via the online survey that you will find here – answering once for each child you have in SPS – or via paper copies of the surveys that are being distributed at schools. Deadline for replying is October 21st, two weeks from this Friday.
