There is NO childcare in Bend for elementary school age children available for working parents. Getting kids up at 6am is impossible. This is not safe.

I am a junior at summit and I am a morning person and starting school at a later time will not only mess up my day but my after school also with work and doctors appointments and sports .

They should all start at 9am it hard on working parents. Also younger kids still need lots of sleep

ReplyTeens don't wake up early but younger kids do so why not work with that?
