The first group of studies is conducted in the ordinary classrooms; the
second group in the shops, laboratories, and studios; the third group in
the auditorium; the fourth group in the gymnasiums, swimming-pools,
playrooms and playgrounds. Four groups of children are simultaneously
engaged in these four different departments throughout the day. If A
represents one half of the classes of grades 1 to 4; B, one half of
grades 5 to 8; C, the other half of grades 1 to 4; and D, the other half
of grades 5 to 8—then A and B together will represent the “X” school of
our old program, and C and D together will represent the “Y” school,
each school with its own corps of teachers and classes of all grades
from 1 to 8. The new program for the duplicate school then works out in
operation as follows. (The new day is an hour longer.)
