FWIW, I always create a separate subtree, with a single timestamp, for every
class session. Advantages:

- Individual status for each session: DONE, POSTPONED or CANCELED.

- If a single class in a series needs to be rescheduled, it's easy.

- I can add notes under the subtree, to plan for the session or note
important things that happened in class. So then my calendar is not just a
calendar -- it also helps with content organization. (That IMO is the whole
point of org-mode: it's not just a calendar!)

YMMV of course.
