These types of seminaries schedule classes before or after regular school time, or negotiate agreed release time permits with the nearest public school districts to allow students to voluntarily leave school grounds for an allotted amount of time (usually one class period) to receive seminary education. In predominantly lds communities, lds seminary facilities are commonly built on church-owned properties that immediately neighbor the grounds of state-owned public schools, allowing individual students to simply walk between school and seminary during their scheduled release time.
