Caloosa Middle School Rings in New Bell Schedule: 9:30 AM Start Time Detailed

Caloosa Middle School students will operate under a new daily bell schedule, designed to streamline the school day and manage class transitions. The new schedule, which began with the current school year, sets clear start and dismissal times for regular days, early release days, and modified Wednesday schedules.

On a regular school day, Caloosa Middle School begins at 9:30 AM and dismisses students at 4:10 PM. The first period runs from 9:30 AM to 10:20 AM, with students having five minutes to transition between classes. This structure aims to provide consistent learning blocks throughout the week.

Wednesdays feature a modified schedule, with the school day still starting at 9:30 AM but concluding earlier at 2:10 PM. Early release days will also commence at 9:30 AM, with dismissal set for 1:10 PM. These adjusted schedules accommodate various school activities and professional development for staff.

The new schedule also details lunch periods, which are staggered to manage student flow. First Lunch takes place from 12:00 PM to 12:30 PM, followed by Second Lunch from 12:35 PM to 1:05 PM. Fifth period on a regular day is scheduled from 1:15 PM to 2:05 PM, ensuring students receive instruction before the final dismissal.
