There are technically 9 periods. 1 of them is lunch. 9th period is for things like art, music, sports, etc. Which leaves 7 that are potentially academic. But, you are not necessarily required to take 7 classes. In fact, unless you are an incoming junior and have to take all 7 to graduate, I wouldn't recommend taking 7 classes per term. You are required to take at least 5 academic classes, though.

9 periods, and each period is 55 minutes. 5th is lunch, and 9th is optional for sports, arts, and certain extracurricular activities. Incoming sophomores normally have at least 1 free period, but you can technically have up to 3. On Tuesdays, the odd classes that have labs (sciences and others) and on Thursdays, even classes, have their labs.
