[quote=Anonymous]Mother of 3 here, 2 who are MCPS graduates. Many of my children's classmates who were in the IB program and other activities (sports, etc.) were often up until midnight or 1 a.m. doing their homework. If the time for those sports is extended until later in the afternoon/evening, that will mean those kids will go do bed even later than they do now, minimizing any extra sleep they would have had by moving the start times later. I am of the camp that thinks the times should remain the same, or perhaps only change by 1/2 hour. These children will be in college, the military, or in the working world soon enough, where no one is going to make the starting time later to give them more sleep. Or should the colleges change their classes to start later, too? After all, kids are in their teens during their first few years of college... [/quote]
