[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]8 and 8:30 am. I know MCPS delayed to 7:45 several years ago. But is that enough?[/quote]

They already went over this and the problem is that changing high school times would negatively impact elementary and middle school times [/quote]

Blah blah blah.I spent years and years waiting for elementary school to start at 9:25. My kids would get up at 6:30 and there almost 3 hours til school started. Send those kids to school earlier![/quote]

Seriously. If they are concerned about health, the High School and elementary school start times should be flipped.[/quote]

My kid has sports directly after school.  They wouldn't get to do their sports which would even more directly impact their health.  Kids work, have activities, sports, which make it much harder to get out later.  Plus, the bus issue.  [/quote]

Yes, and in AACPS kids still do sports directly after school. Why do you think sports would be cancelled if school started an hour later?[/quote]

Their teams suck though!  Probably because practices are shorter.  DOn't shortchange kids sports, it's important because PE is a joke![/quote]

Kids do outside sports.  Wasn't talking about MCPS sports.[/quote]

Yeah our travel soccer would be severely impacted if school went later. I know families in Howard county that had to drop out.[/quote]
