EducationScheduling & Booking3MediumTeacher
Homeroom teachers have to teach specials subjects (like PE, art, music) themselves with no built-in planning time or period breaks.
The school district does not provide dedicated specials teachers or a rotating schedule; homeroom teachers must cover all subjects continuously without planning periods.
