Add empty time and a bit more info
A Frontyard team will be conducting planning sessions as a school.  What kind of school? Well, definitely not a private school, or one with any form of certification, that is for sure. More the kind of school which is asking - what is a school, what can a new summer schoolbe. Asking the very question of what it means to learn and teach together - from each other. In many ways FY is already an informal school - a space for teaching, learning, thinking, making and sharing knowledge. The FYSS is simply an experiment in temporarily changing the cadence and timings of what already happens at FY.What happens when we concentrate?
== Topic ideas, loose list, please add more :) ==

== Sessions / Schedule, November 2018 ==
This is a working draft schedule for FFYS 2018.
 
There are the possibility of 3 sessions per day for the two weeks of the Summer School.
 
'''Mornings:''' 9am - 1pm
 
'''Afternoons:''' 2 - 5pm
 
'''Evenings:''' 6pm - late
 
We are booking 1 class per block, but classes do not need to take up the entire time of the block. Classes can take as much or as little time as they need. I class may take up more than one block and could extend over several days. These blocks of time are purely intended to avoid conflicts.
