[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't like the change for selfish reasons....We live near the HS, but 7 miles from the MS. DD will have to get up at 5:30 next year, instead of six. In HS, she will be able to sleep to 6:30 though. Bigger problem is the fact that it means I will have to get up at 5:30 to make sure DD gets up at 5:30. Yeah...I am selfish.[/quote] The parents I know who have had MS kids make the early transition to 7:20 start times (with buses at 6:30-6:40) say that their kids tend to get up on their own (often texting them from the other side of the house!). And I don't know why your child would need to get up at 5:30 for a 6:40 (or later bus). Maybe he/she needs to reduce the morning prep or eat a little faster?[/quote]
