Daily Schedule
As a K-9 school, we give our students the attention they deserve—and the resources they need to thrive. Informed by research, inspired by experience, we do what works best for our students. Each day balances time for active learning with periods for reflection to nurture the whole child.
- Foote operates on a six-day cycle (A–F days).
- Most class periods are 45 minutes.
- Art and some science classes are 90 minutes each.
- Core subjects are taught 5–6 times per cycle.
