Starting school at 7am didn't help, either.

My high school had us off the bus at the school at like 6h45. I was on the corner at 6h23 every day in high school. In the winter, I was out there before the sun came up. It was ludicrous.

I remember in highschool, a bunch of kids complained to our homeroom teacher and the teacher said: "it doesn't matter, the same students who show up on time will be here on time and the late ones will be late". I didn't say it but I thought to myself, that doesn't have anything to do with efficiency though ...

Elementary schools typically start after 8, but yeah, that's still early.

When I was in grade school it was around 7:30 am, we didn't start after 8 am until middle school.
