It’s March 19, and on this date in 1918 Congress passed the Standard Time Act which defined five time zones for the continental United States. It’s a good day to remind you that American School is located in the Central Time Zone, so we follow Central Standard Time from November to March and Central Daylight Time from March to November. Please keep that in mind if you wish to call us between 8 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. during the week to discuss your homeschool courses. It is our policy to reply to phone calls within one business day, so if you call us after hours and have to leave a message, you can expect a reply shortly. Thank you for making us your distance education middle school or distance education high school!
