[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just think it's funny how so many people are worried about their up-coming ms students having to go to school at 7:30, when thousands of ms students in FCPS have been doing this for the last 40 years! Like you never noticed that other kids (at the secondary schools) had a raw deal? And suddenly now that it's your kid, it's unacceptable? Suck it up. It's your kids' turn to catch the 6:40 a.m. bus. [/quote] So true. Once it affects someone personally, then it becomes unacceptable, but if it's someone else's kid waiting outside in the dark? Oh well, too bad. Our middle school has always started at 7:40am, so 7:30 won't be a huge difference. The kids will still be waiting outside in the pitch dark for a 6:20 bus. [/quote] My middle school student loves the early 7:20 start time because it leave plenty of "free" time in the afternoons. Sports, Homework, Outside, Friendships, etc...[/quote]
