And then the teachers were upset because the class was falling asleep after lunch. Nevermind the fact we weren't receiving the appropriate nutrients needed to stay awake and function properly
Starting school at 7am didn't help, either.
My high school had us off the bus at the school at like 6h45. I was on the corner at 6h23 every day in high school. In the winter, I was out there before the sun came up. It was ludicrous.
I remember in highschool, a bunch of kids complained to our homeroom teacher and the teacher said: "it doesn't matter, the same students who show up on time will be here on time and the late ones will be late". I didn't say it but I thought to myself, that doesn't have anything to do with efficiency though ...
Elementary schools typically start after 8, but yeah, that's still early.
When I was in grade school it was around 7:30 am, we didn't start after 8 am until middle school.
Oof not around here
