We need your input...
As many of you are aware, there is an abundance of research supporting later school start times for middle and high school students. This research also points to the overall student mental health and well-being of the students, which ultimately is a focus of our district goals.
To address this, the District formed a Bell Time Committee to research and explore what adjustments were needed to more closely align our start times with the research. The committee presented their recommendation to the Board of Education, at the November 21 Board meeting.
Here’s the “Why” behind this change:
1. https://www.cdc.gov/features/school-start-times/index.html
3. https://www.washington.edu/news/2018/12/12/high-school-start-times-study/
The District is sharing a Google Form with you, so you can provide anonymous
feedback that will be shared with the committee and central administration.
