My children attend Timmerman (We love the school). I have to be to work at 7:30 and my children utilize the before school program at the school. I see teachers arriving to work at the same early time that I drop my children off. I work until 5 or 6 depending on what is going on at work and when I am able to pick up my daughter from the quest program at 5pm, I see the same teachers leaving that were there early in the morning. There are many teachers that put in as many hours as any other working person and others that put in much more and much less. There are parents that are able to pick their kids up early on Wednesdays with no problems and complaints and others that struggle with the event. (I struggle) Unfortunately changing the day of the week, the time of release or how many times the early release occurs in the month will not work for everybody. There will always be someone who has a problem or issue with the idea if it occurs or doesn't. I do wish that there were better programs for the kids during this time, ones that help with reading or math or that offer some good physical activity.
On Why end school early?
