[quote=Anonymous]I was an elementary school teacher. The teacher is correct. Prime time for learning is first thing in the a.m. Later afternoon gets really sluggish. I would never have reading or math in the afternoon unless absolutely necessary. Of course, where I taught, the classroom teacher had control of the schedule--except for specials. lunch, and recess. And,kids are ready to go home and play. Do you really want to push elementary school so that kids are playing video games in the morning before they come to school? They need time outside. 8:00 start is perfect. [/quote]
