Balanced Day

A "balanced day" refers to the way that the school day is scheduled. Instead of having the traditional morning and afternoon recess and longer lunch break, the balanced day is divided into three 100 minute sessions separated by two nutrition breaks of 40 to 50 minutes. However, different times can be used if the instructional time for each day totals 300 minutes.
