PowerSchool Expression

This aligns to the period the course is offered in PowerSchool. The (A) is the "Day cycle" in Powerschool. It is always (A). 

Any TVS classroom that should be aligned with PowerSchool must have the (A) text in the classroom name. 

At CASC. periods are 45 minutes, so it takes 2 periods to make a 90 minute block
1-2(A) is 1st block
3-4(A) is 2nd block 
5-6(A) is 3rd block
7-8(A) is 4th block 
At HVA, periods are defaulted to 90 minutes, so it takes 1 period for a block
1(A) is 1st block
2(A) is 2nd block
3(A) is 3rd block
4(A) is 5th block
There are also special sections at each school. For example ATT(A) is the section dedicated to logging student daily attendance.
