My Day at TVS
Our Upper School uses a Modular Schedule. Our schedule rotates to ensure that every student will have the opportunity to learn during the time of day when they are at their best. The academic year is divided into six terms, each 28 days long.
8:00 A.M
Zero hour
While the school day hasn’t officially started, we have designated this time for clubs such as NHS, Knights Write, and Bible Study to meet before academics begin.
8:30 A.M.
Academics
Throughout the first half of their day, Upper School students take a range of courses, including English, History, Foreign Language, Science, Math and an Elective (Studio Art, Theater, Engineering, APs, etc.).
9:55 A.M.
WIN
“What I Need” time is incorporated into each day providing a period similar to study hall that allows students to meet with teachers for help and complete work if needed.
If there are important announcements that impact the entire Upper School to be shared, then this period will be used for an assembly.
On Wednesdays this time is used for Chapel service. The entire Upper School gathers in the North Naples Church (NNC) Sanctuary to listen, sing, think spiritually and pray.
