Abstract

Year-round school scheduling is an alternative being explored by various school systems throughout the country. Alcoa High School has adopted a year-round schedule in the 2000-2001 school year from the traditional schedule used in 1999-2000. This research examined data using descriptive statistics to describe the relationship between student attendance rates within each scheduling type, by comparing Alcoa High School findings to other high schools in the area.
