Summary

·         State requires 63,720 minutes of instruction per year, based on 55 minutes per class x 7 = 385 minutes per day.

·         Sabine 2011-2012 School Calendar is based on 165 days at 385 minutes per day + 2 days x 275 minutes per day = 64,075 total instructional minutes.

·         64,075 instructional time included in calendar - 63,720 state required = 355 minutes over the state minimum. 

·         The superintendent reserves the right to make adjustments to the calendar as the need arises.
