Replaces the fixed “Period 1 / Period 2” grid with a continuous, minute-level timeline that’s ideal for lower schools that need scheduling flexibility

Israel, 20th Jul 2026 — ScheduLearn, the school scheduling software that uses AI algorithms to generate rapid, optimal schedules, today announced the debut of its Mini Periods feature. Mini Periods comprises a new time-based scheduling mode built for elementary/lower schools, which generally don’t run on a period system. It replaces the fixed “Period 1 / Period 2” grid with a continuous, minute-level timeline. As a result, these schools can build a complete, automatic schedule that matches how their day actually works.

“A period-based tool doesn’t do well representing an elementary day, so those schools were effectively unsupported and had to undertake the laborious process of scheduling by hand,” explained Eliyahu Masinter, Co-Founder of ScheduLearn. “Most scheduling software is meant for secondary schools, which run on periods, with bells ringing regularly throughout the day. In contrast, elementary schools generally don’t work this way. Their day is a sequence of variable-length activities, such as a 15-min morning meeting, a 45-min literacy block, a 20-min snack, a specials rotation, recess, and so forth. This is the problem we are solving with Mini Periods.”

ScheduLearn Mini Periods:

• Models the day as a continuous timeline instead of a fixed grid.
• Enables each lesson to have its own length in minutes, rather than a preset period of time.
• Allows for teacher meetings to overlap with specials, e.g., Gym, Art, Music, etc., so teachers can meet while their class is in an activity.
• Builds the whole schedule automatically, accounting for all the variation in lessons and all the teacher requirements.

Mini Periods is compatible with period-based schedules. It can be configured to intersect with a time-based schedule. This is a common situation for institutions that combine elementary school and middle school, for instance.

As World Cup crowds surge across North America, Drug-Free World volunteers are using the tournament’s 16-city footprint to put education material directly into the hands of fans, families and communities.

LOS ANGELES, Calif., United States, 19th Jul 2026— As the 2026 FIFA World Cup brings large international audiences to cities across North America, the Foundation for a Drug-Free World is conducting an educational outreach campaign to provide informational materials on substance abuse prevention.

The initiative includes distribution of Truth About Drugs educational booklets in areas connected with World Cup activity across the United States, Canada and Mexico. The materials present factual information about commonly abused substances and are intended to support informed decision-making among individuals, families and community members.

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is the first edition of the tournament to include 48 teams and three host countries. With matches scheduled across 16 host cities, the event is expected to draw broad public attention throughout North America. The Foundation for a Drug-Free World is using this period of increased public engagement to make drug education materials available in participating communities.

The campaign has distributed more than 3 million educational booklets toward its goal of 4 million across the three host nations.

In Canada, volunteers have placed informational materials with local businesses and shared them with members of the public. In Mexico, volunteers distributed educational booklets during public gatherings in Mexico City and Guadalajara. In the United States, outreach has taken place in several major metropolitan areas connected with World Cup activities, including Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Seattle, San Francisco, Houston, Austin and Kansas City.

The Truth About Drugs program includes educational booklets, audiovisual public service announcements and a documentary titled The Truth About Drugs: Real People, Real Stories. These materials are designed to provide factual information about drugs and their effects.

Businesses, community groups and individuals interested in participating in the educational outreach may request materials or learn more about the program through the Foundation for a Drug-Free World website.
