[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How would you all propose this works?  MCPS already doesn't have enough buses and in HS its a two mile rule despite some communities having no sidewalks and crossing major roads.  So, as a parent who has to drive, earlier is better.  And, after school activities would conflict.  Plus homework.  And, if you make ES earlier, many kids are in after school programs so they are going to have the same long day anyway.  They stagger the school start because of the busses and even if they bought more busses having enough drivers is an issue.[/quote]

It's actually quite simple. Switch hs start times with elementary start times. Ohhh so difficult. [/quote]

And, how would that work?  You think it's good for HS kids to get out at 3:30 or 4, especially when they have a longer day.  Yours may not but some of our kids have activities, jobs and homework so that means they'd be up much later, till 12-1 and then sleep in?  How is that better.  You should try working on your parenting.  At a reasonable hour if homework is done, I send mine to bed.  See how that works, it's called parenting.  [/quote]HS kids get out at 3:30-4pm in many counties across the country and make all the extracurriculars + jobs + homework work just fine. Maybe you should work on your parenting a bit if you think this will be such a problem. [/quote]
