School restructuring

I am reading more about schools that are considering changing from the "traditional" units of about 52 minutes every day to much longer periods of 90-120 minutes every other day. With all of the concerns, maybe we need to get those who are trying out some of these new time schedules and those who are about to together to share what's happening. Any takers? We in Bellevue are looking forward to the opportunity to try longer periods of time next year even though it will mean doing things in an entirely different way. I makes no sense to me to go to periods that are twice as long just to teach two regular lessons every other day. What successes and failures are you having? What seems to be working and why? What resources and what kind of training did you get along the way?
Thanks.
