[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In our district school (elementary) starts at 8:20 (doors open/bus arrives at 8:00) so I put dc on bus at 7:40 and get to work by 8:05. Dh is not involved at all in the morning routine; he starts work at 6. But then he is able to meet the bus. So I guess our answer is to stagger schedules. [/quote]

This would be my ideal schedule, [b]our ES doesn't start until 930,[/b] with 9am bus pickup.  So beforecare it is, we stagger schedules but meetings may start at 9 or 930 so doesn't work to not start the commute until then.[/quote]

That is crazy late. Is this some sort of Montessori with lots of rich SAHMs/"retired" dads?

Our kid's school starts at 8:30am. Drop him off at the drive-thru at 815am and he hangs out with other kids in the gym. Can drop off as early as 730am if you pay for before-care.

930am is just really weird. [/quote]

No it's MCPS- sorry it's actually 9:25, I just rounded up.  But I agree it's really late. [/quote]

What time does your school day end?

My kid is in DCPS, school goes from 8:35 - 3:25 each day. Can drop off as early as 8:15am without triggering aftercare.

If your kid ends the day at 3:25pm, they are getting ~1 hour LESS instruction than my kid each day. That is huge.[/quote]

3:50[/quote]
