- Replying to @rachelExactly — I learned about start times by reading about the last time the US tried permanent DST and kids kept getting hit by vehicles because they were going to school so early, in the dark, clearly a) struggling to see, and b) tired as hell???
- Replying to @mannyfidelI can't think of a good reason for the schools to set it at this time — getting out early isn't convenient for kids/parents either. Also forces the Cassies of this world to get up at an even more ungodly hour to do their makeup/exfoliation routines when they hit their Maddy era
