The Way It Is Now, It's Pretty Much Glorified Day Care
-
Boston is going to start high school later next year, moving the start to 8 am. We've been here before, debating how early school should be. I think it's missing the point; when I was a student, i thought the seven or eight hours I was in class was too much. Make it four hours in the classroom and four of independent work at home or online and I'd have been just fine. Okay, some kids might need more time in class, but what they do now, both in time and number of days per year, seems arbitrary. (Boston Herald)
