EducationScheduling & Booking4HighTeacher$ implied

A teacher struggles with an admin-mandated schedule that crowds out required instructional time for math and other subjects due to pull-out services, RTI, and specials, leaving insufficient time to meet curriculum requirements.

Current scheduling is done manually by admin without a tool to visualize conflicts and ensure all required instructional minutes are met; teachers are not consulted, and there is no way to flag infeasible timetables or propose alternatives.
