Abstract

Recent investigations indicate that because the problem of providing educational facilities and of maintaining an adequate teaching staff is gaining momentum, several school systems have either been forced to eliminate grades or resort to the so-called double-session. In most instances,the double-session, in which the child attends school either in the morning or in the afternoon, has been adopted. In the literature, the terms double-session and half-day session seem to be used synonymously. However,both terms more nearly approximate a three-quarter day rather than a half-day.
