[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]30 minutes is not long enough to get ready. It really isn't (and I think it's absolutely horrible that FCPS has this schedule).

Again, 30 minutes will not work. I've had instances where I've been w/out luggage, sleeping in a hotel, catching a flight before sunrise. Sleeping in my clothes. Nothing to do but brush my teeth and go. And still can't do it, for some reason, in 30 minutes. Just waking and rolling out of bed takes some amount of time.[/quote]

Really?  You do get that most people can get out the door in less time.

My kids (boy and girl) needed 20 min in the morning. This includes:

Mom: making hot breakfast, getting water bottle and ice ready,  getting hot lunch ready, getting ready to take kid to a bus stop with a later pick up time.

Kid: shoes, socks, eat, teeth, pack lunch and water bottle and go (insert grab hoodie or something if needed).

Everything that could be ready the night before, was.

Zero electronics until out the door. [/quote]

Some parents don’t baby their kids and want them to make breakfast themselves.[/quote]

Great. Have them make something easy. But you don’t have them make elaborate AND get out the door in 20
Min. Sleep is the most impt. [/quote]
