[quote=Anonymous]This is such a nasty conversation but there were many many hours spent on this several years ago and the end result was that times moved by 15 minutes or something. The primary problems were: - bus routes were challenging and no good way to get the MS and ES kids to school at reasonable times with a later HS bus route — babysitting issues with HS kids needed to watch/pick up siblings after school (which also relates to the first—that’s why they can’t make the ES start at 7:30 instead of the HS) — sports issues because if you start school later kids will be playing practicing until well last dark. Can’t do morning practices because can’t afford extra activities buses. IME, all of it could be worked out if we had universal child care, and none of it will be worked out because we don’t have universal child care. — [/quote]
