Learning today to lead tomorrow!
Timber Drive Elementary operates
on the year-round calendar. Students at the year-round schools are divided
into four groups, called tracks, with each track having its own calendar.
In a year-round elementary school, the traditional 180-day school year
is divided into nine-week quarters with a three week break at the end
of each quarter. Students are in school the same number of days as their
counterparts in traditional schools; the days are simply redistributed
thoughout the year. The reorganized schedule is called a 45/15 - 45
days in school, 15 days off. Schedules are staggered so that, at any
given time, three tracks are in school and one is on break. These staggered
schedules make it possible for the school to serve up to thirty-three
percent more students than its intended capacity.

Year-round schools
provide a more continuous learning process. Since students do not have
long summer vacations, major reviewing in the fall is eliminated. Students
and teachers are more energized throughout the year due to regular breaks.
The three-week breaks provide frequent enrichment and remedial opportunities
for students during the year.
