Why start scheduling early?

• Identify resources needed for stronger schedules and include them in next year’s budgets
• Create a runway to plan and execute bigger changes
• Provide teachers with time to adapt lesson plans, receive professional development, and deliver other supports to prepare for bigger changes
• Gather feedback on the current schedule and respond with “quick win” adjustments early in the school year
• And much more!

How It Works

At DMGroup’s Elementary Scheduling Academy, we’ll use our methodical approach to building best-in-class elementary school schedules based on decades of experience with school leaders nationwide.

• Intensive hands-on work: We believe that the best way to learn is to learn by doing. With the support of DMSchedules scheduling experts, each participant will work on building their school schedule following scheduling best practices.
• DMSchedules for Elementary Schools scheduling software: Each participant will be issued a 1-year license with full access to DMSchedules for Elementary Schools scheduling software at no extra charge ($1,500 value).
• Peer network: The academy is designed to engage participants in discussion and share ideas across districts and schools. You will meet other like-minded school administrators with whom to share challenges and lessons learned.
  
• Ongoing scheduling support: Our scheduling experts will provide guidance and support with scheduling iterations during and after the Academy, until you have your final schedule.
