1 Schedulg/School Calendar Education Commission of the States 700 Broadway, Suite 1200 Denver, CO Fax: Mimum Number of Mutes/ Hours a High School By Michael Colasanti November 2007 Typical steps establishg the school calendar 1. State policymakers typically defe the length of time students spend school through legislation of agency regulation. The most typical method used is to defe the school calendar by settg the number of days required the school year. This normally cludes time designated for teacher professional development - time durg which there is no pupil-teacher contact. 2. Once the number of days is defed, policymakers typically specify the number of hours of direct pupil-teacher contact time needed to qualify as a school day. 3. Fally, policy leaders defe the activities that may and may not count toward the mimum hours the school day. For example, Iowa cludes passg periods as part of the structional day but does not clude lunch periods. Nearly all of these states allow for some level of accommodation for unforeseen emergencies. The length of an average structional day The average mimum number of mutes a high school day (9th-12th) across the 50 states is 314 mutes, which is 12 mutes longer than the average mimum day for elementary grades (1st-5th) and four mutes longer than the average middle school grades (6th-8th). It should be noted however that while allocated time does crease as grades progress, the crements are small and the differences are mostly significant. Other means of addressg the school day Sixteen states do not specify the mimum number of hours or mutes that constitute an structional day. Instead, state leaders typically defe the length of the school year and leave it to the local districts to determe how each day is spent. In search of results As policymakers across the country search for ways to improve the outcomes of education, they frequently revisit policies impactg the amount of time students spend school. To help form these efforts, we offer a note of caution: To improve student achievement, policymakers should not automatically look only to extendg the days or mutes of student learng time, but should also consider ways to make better use of the time they have. 1
