[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted this suggestion in the previous thread but it seems to be a better fit in this thread:
	
I'm sure I'm missing something (perhaps something to do with the bus logistics) but I don't understand why they did not vote to have elem. schools start 20 minutes later, middle schools ten minutes earlier (7.45) and high schools 40 minutes later at 8.15. I suggest this even though my child is in middle school and would not be happy about getting to school ten minutes earlier. However, I think it is worth it to get that extra sleep when he is older. I am already starting to notice that his sleep patterns are changing. He is a good kid who goes to bed at 8.30 without any fuss but it is taking him longer to fall asleep and it is getting harder to get him out of bed in the morning and yes we do limit screen time on school night - no screens for a couple of hours before bedtime.

Your middle schooler goes to bed at 8:30?! Amazing.[/quote]

My 8th grader goes to bed at 9:30pm.  No screens after 8pm and in bed by 9pm.  Lights out at 9:30pm.  It can be done.  It just takes parents that have a set of balls.  [/quote]

7th grader is lights out by 9:30 as well and he has no screen time, too. We're still fighting with him every morning to wake up, eat and get to school. By Friday, he's a tired disaster.[/quote]
