[quote=Anonymous]I am so upset. I feel like this is the straw that broke the camel's back. My kid getting out of school at 2:15 is ridiculous. Before having kids, dh and I got flexible jobs, moved to a great school district. We loved how with daycare, one person did drop off and the other did pickup. We liked being with our kids. ZERO office jobs allow you to leave at 2pm. Core hours are 10-3pm. I wish my elementary school let out at 3:00 or 3:15 so that I could pick them up and walk home together. I feel like middle schoolers or high schoolers (who mostly bus since those schools serve a larger area) should get out at 2pm. Middle school and high schoolers are legally allowed to stay home alone for an hour or two until parents get out. Elementary kids instead have to go to aftercare. Loudoun county is one of the richest counties in the nation. Mostly because of dual incomes. They need to take into consideration working parents. I have thought for a long time that schools need to lengthen the school day to at least 7 hours. 6 hours of school is not enough. Kids would love longer lunches, recess and language instruction.
