This is a waste of time (no pun intended) and money, it’s not the answer. School start times are fine the way they are AND YES I CARE ABOUT MY KIDS.

Just delaying school start time oversimplifies the issues contributing to adolescent sleep and mental well-being. It is a huge fiscal undertaking that will take funds away from our kids, teachers, classrooms.

Taxpayer and parent at BMES, SRMS and RHS Ridgefield needs to fix larger problems in the schools such as asbestos oil tank removal immediately, and we don't have the money to spend on SSL. I encourage the BOE to reverse the SSL initiative.

(RHS,SRMS,SES) There is no way this will ever work, and it is a huge waste of money. Use our tax dollars on something that can actually help children.

My biggest concern (apart from the cost) is the idea that positions will continue to be cut, including mental health positions. This has a direct effect on student outcomes and causes schools to triage issues, often times causing serious situations to fall through the cracks. This is negligent to allow. This plan also causes a burden not only in taxes, but then adds a substantial cost to the shift in childcare. People are not going to want to move their families in if they do the math for the extra childcare expenses.
