Is anyone using both semesters and trimesters?

Amanda Gagne

Hello! Our school is possibly moving from trimesters to semesters, but hoping to keep some classes on the trimester model. Has anyone done this successfully?

Hello,

We are on our second year after switching to trimesters, I understand what you must be dealing with.

I am in no way an expert, but perhaps you will need to have both semester and trimester terms when you set up the school year. From there you'll be able to schedule courses and create grade plans and maintain both options.

Again, double check this suggestion.

SAA uses both systems—semester for K–5 and tri-semester for grades 6–8.
