Build a pacing calendar for a course. Subject and level: [SUBJECT_AND_LEVEL]. Required content and standards: [REQUIRED_CONTENT]. School calendar (start and end dates, breaks, testing windows, events): [SCHOOL_CALENDAR]. Lesson length and frequency: [LESSON_SCHEDULE]. Assessment requirements: [ASSESSMENTS]. Student needs and prior pacing issues: [PACING_ISSUES].

Return:
1. Calculation: total teaching days available after removing breaks, testing, assemblies, and a buffer of about 10 percent for disruptions; show the arithmetic.
2. A unit sequence table: Unit | Key concepts | Standards | Number of lessons | Assessment | Start week | End week | Buffer.
3. A weekly calendar for the first term in detail, with lesson titles and flags for assessments and known events.
4. A review and reteach plan: where cycles of retrieval practice and reteaching fit.
5. Prerequisite checks: which skills must be taught earlier, and a diagnostic.
6. Flexible pacing: what to cut or compress if behind (a prioritized list of essential versus nice-to-have content) and what to extend if ahead.
7. A tracker for planned versus actual progress, updated every two weeks.
8. Collaboration notes with other teachers.

Use only my school calendar and content list. Ask for missing dates, and do not invent standards.

Days available: 180 school days - 12 (breaks and holidays) - 8 (testing) - 6 (assemblies) = 154; buffer 10 percent = 15; teaching days 139.
Unit | Lessons | Assessment | Weeks
1 Fractions | 18 | quiz + test | 1-4
2 Decimals | 16 | test | 5-8
3 Geometry | 20 | project | 9-13
Review and reteach slots after each unit (2 days). If behind: cut optional enrichment lessons in Unit 3; if ahead: add problem-solving days. Tracker: planned versus actual every two weeks.
