Same times next year

Same+times+next+year

For the first time since the 2010 school year, the school’s start and end times will remain the same next year.

With the opening of the new intermediate school, Willow Springs Middle School, a 7th and 8th grade school, the district will need to make sure that buses are able to get students to and from all schools in a timely manner.

“With the grade level configuration changes and opening a new school we wanted to implement start and end times with the least amount of additional impact on our families as possible,” Superintendent Ted Moore said. “This can be accomplished with keeping all start and end times as they are currently and adding the intermediate school to begin 15 minutes prior to the elementary campuses.”

Jessica Parrott, Sports Editor
Jessica Parrott is a senior, meaning she not only runs the sports section of The Red Ledger, but also the school. With her best friend and fellow staff member Julia Carder by her side, Jessica is going to make this year the best yet. Her favorite sport to cover is football, not only does she love the game but she also loves the boys. Nah, just kidding… slightly. As a senior, Jessica knows that she can literally do anything she wants. Anything. Her favorite saying is “Lord love a duck,” a frequent exclamation made when people do appalling things. She is hoping to attend either Texas Tech or Texas A&M but is also considering Baylor, Oklahoma State, and Arkansas. Ya never know though. She is obsessed with both Friday Night Lights and Gossip Girl, two drastically different shows. The way to her heart is a large Diet Coke from McDonald’s and cabana bowl from Taco Cabana. She is from Boerne, Texas, a suburb outside of San Antonio and she believes to this day that it is the closest to heaven on earth you can get, it’s the Hill Country, it doesn’t get much better. She loves riding boots, flowy tops, and her Texas James Avery ring. Thanks and Gig ‘em, Wreck ‘em, Sic ‘em, Go Pokes, Woo Pig! She’ll let ya know when she decides on a school ;)

    What does that mean in English? Don’t middle schoolers start 15 minutes after the high school students now and don’t the elementary school students start before high school?

    Does this mean next years 7th and 8th graders are going to need to start school around 30-45 minutes earlier than this year? If so I hope they are ALL morning people. 30-45 minutes in the morning is not insignificant if my math is correct..
