The document provides guidance on building a master schedule for a school and outlines the key steps in the process:
1. Begin the process in October by reviewing curriculum, courses, and prior schedules to determine changes needed.
2. In February, have students preregister for courses to gather enrollment data and determine course sections and staffing needs.
3. In March, use enrollment and staffing projections to determine teacher demand and course loads to assign teachers.
4. Address potential scheduling conflicts like singletons, parallel courses, and team teaching when building the schedule.
