The Faculty Academic Committee asked departments to consider a modified break proposal after Head Prefects Brandon Levin ’09 and Tessa Wick ’09 presented their initial proposal for a second weekly break to the FAC on Sept. 9, FAC Chairman Kent Nealis said.

Students asked for a second break between fifth and sixth periods with shortened class periods. FAC asked teachers if they favored a second break on Wednesdays after second period, with shortened periods or a longer school day due to a break. Nealis said he did not know when a decision would be made.
