[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that sports are great.  I had one who did sports and one who did not.  People might be surprised to know that there are a lot of activities other than sports that are going to be negatively impacted by the new times.[/quote]

The new times shouldn't have a negative effect on extracurriculars. TJ runs from 8:30 to 3:50, with sports and many other extracurriculars starting about four and going till about six. Lots of very involved kids there, with long commutes to boot, and they manage to get it all done.

Honestly, I can't stand listening to the Chicken Littles who insist the sky is falling with every change FCPS implements.  Some of these changes are for the BETTER [b]for some people, but not all[/b].  [/quote][/quote]

I wrote the last quote, but you seem to have changed it.  I did not originally say "better for some people, but not all".  I said "some of these changes are for the BETTER".  Meaning, you can't please everyone, so try to do the best you can for the most people.  Please don't change someone else's words around.  [/quote]
