I came to my high school which runs on block, from a school that didn't. I agree that if you do miss a day or two it is very hard to make up, but many of the other problems are really not there. And my favorite plus is one that you forgot, if you take Chemistry first semester you can take AP chem next, same with foreign languages, Latin 3/4 one semester then 5/6 the next. Concentration is not an issue as there is a 20 minute break between periods 1 and 2, between 2 and 3 is a 35 minute lunch, and betweeen 3 and 4 there is a 15 minute break. This gives us a time to cool down. In sciencee classes obviously you have more time to do the lab as you now have 93 minutes instaed of 47. those few minutes cut out of class, well as you know as class doesn't start immeadiately, usually the first five minutes and the last 3 are wasted so that makes up for your minutes. Drama, band, etc. has more time each day to become better and the amount of books you haul around are less. I like your essay but I think you missed a couple things. Thanks
