Nah that would require compromise which left Earth decades ago.
 
Just read an article and most senators didn't even know this was being voted on and it slipped through by unanimous consent. :lol:

I thought the only real complaint was kids going to school in the dark. But can't you just adjust the school day?

Nope. Way too many factors. School times for Elem/Mid/HS are staggered because there aren't enough buses to do it all at once. Crossing guards also go from school to school to school, morning and afternoon. Of course the argument could be made that would create more jobs, but it's already hard enough to get bus drivers. That's a shit job. Then if you start pushing school later in the day, then sports gets pushed later into the night.

It's just a chain reaction of shit.

So I think the real answer would to be to rearrange who goes to school win. Move the high schoolers to starting school at 7:45 instead of elementary. Teenagers can stand at the bus stop in the dark and many are driving themselves. Even that causes another problem: More elem kids are dropped off by their parents on the way to work, not ride the bus (at least at my kids school). So moving their start time would fuck up work schedule for a lot of parents.

Fuck, there's no good answer :lol:
 
Lol. Our district realized high schoolers are much better being the earliest start 30 years ago.

For the reasons you mentioned plus the fact that grade schoolers are better early risers than high schoolers.
 
City problems. I went to a small K-12 school. We started at 8:15 and ended at like 3 my entire time in school. Never a variance except when the school switched from a 7 period day to a 4 period block scheduling (which was awesome).

What I find baffling is that kids are given more work/homework today than I ever remember having, yet their school days are shorter and they get way more days off during the year.
