The regular schedule, used most days, is shown at the left. In addition to the 50 minute class periods with 5 minute passing times, the regular schedule contains a 10 minute mid-morning break between periods 2 and 3, and a 35 minute lunch between periods 4 and 5.

The advisory schedule, used most Fridays and on occasional other days throughout the year, has 45 minute regular classes, to allow for a 35 minute advisory period between 2nd and 3rd periods.

The 12:55 release schedule is used on early release (teacher inservice) days, roughly once every 2 or 3 weeks throughout the year, and usually on Wednesdays. On these days, classes are 30 minutes long, and the 35 minute lunch period comes between 6th and 7th periods.

The 12:05 release is used on dismissal before Thanksgiving, and on Parent/Teacher conference days. Classes on these days last 27 minutes, and there is no lunch period, and no lunch is served.

The 2 hour late schedule is used for late starts due to snow or icy road conditions. Class periods are 33 minutes long, and lunch is served between 3rd and 4th periods. All passing times are 5 minutes long.
