[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This schedule exists because buses are shared between the levels of school. The same bus takes kids to middle and high school first. It would make so much more sense to send the little kids to school first, then the high schoolers later, but that is too much upheaval for the schools to implement.[/quote] FWIW, I now have teens and WISH their schools started later. Getting teenagers up and out the door at 7am is just about impossible, as the adolescent organism is programmed to be nocturnal (lol). I've always wished they could reverse it -- have the little kids go to school early and let the high schoolers have a later start more in line with their biorhythms. But this will never happen because of after school jobs, activities and sports. Hang in there![/quote]
