8:4 Schedule

This innovative schedule is the result of years of research, testing, feedback, and faculty input. The schedule allows for the prioritization of a student’s overall wellness to encourage and enhance the development of her whole person. It is designed to help students alleviate and manage stress by keeping the school day all-inclusive with classes, co-curriculars, wellness, and faith formation occurring within the school day.

The 8:4 Schedule consists of eight class periods per day on most Monday – Wednesdays, and four extended instruction periods on most Thursdays and Fridays. The DSHA Master Calendar will note which schedule will run on which day.
