[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the super early start times are not helping our kids mental health. Children should not be getting up at 5:30AM to go to school. Dr Garza needs to wake up and change the school schedule. [/quote] Just to add my experience we lived far out from the school so I had to get up pretty early to "commute" :) in to the school. Bumping the start time by 30 minutes or so wouldn't have really made a difference. But I know some people talk about switching the elem. start times with the HS starts instead.[/quote] Oh, forgot to add, that if I still had a long bus ride but got home so much later because the school day was shifted much later plus afterschool activities I would have been trashed every night staying up late to get it all done. I don't think the typical teenager is going to get up and do homework then even if school started at 9 a.m.[/quote]
