California votes to bar schools from starting before 8:30am to help give students more sleep
Associated Press
California lawmakers voted Friday to bar middle and high schools from starting before 8:30 a.m., one of dozens of proposals debated in the Legislature on the final day of its legislative session.
The bill, SB328, narrowly passed in both chambers. The development came as lawmakers scrambled to pass bills ahead of a midnight deadline, addressing topics ranging from internet neutrality and smoking at state beaches.

We all know what will happen with this law. The kids will simply stay up later. Since the REAL parents have become the state, there will be no one to monitor the kids. :headbang:

For every political action there is a double or tipple reaction of unintended consequences.
75% or more of these kids ride the bus to school. Now they are riding to and from during rush hours. That means the kids will spend longer times on the bus. Busses will use more fuel. The carbon foot print will increase. Because of the longer ride times the curb side bus stop pick up times will be about the same. But on the bright side they can sleep on the bus.
School ending times will also be pushed back. Daycare schedules will have to be adjusted. Again the travel home will be during rush hour.
But hey. Its for the children.

If it wasn't for the fact, that everybody commenting on this is ignorant of and only chiming in because it's California, that this moves the school start time back a WHOPPING 15 minutes! So much for OH MY GOD scary results of the change.

I just think it's idiotic there is going to be a state law that decrees the time.

Oh no argument there, it's just as idiotic as some people hyperventilating over it.

A lot of the public schools now give the kids breakfast though, I don't think it's much more than orange juice and cold cereal, it's something.

I see a real need for this change. The poor illegal kids are out whoring and slinging drugs so late at night that they need to catch some sleep somewhere in the day.
