Changing the middle school and high school schedules for Edinburg?

Question: I have a question about the possibility of students from Edinburg coming to Broadalbin-Perth. Will the middle school and high school be starting an hour later to accommodate these students if they do come to B-P?

Answer: I assume you're referring to the proposal that Broadalbin-Perth submitted to the Edinburg Board of Education to educate approximately 50 of their secondary students at Broadalbin-Perth's middle and high schools.

Regardless of where Edinburg decides to send its secondary students, I have long believed that our secondary students should be starting their day later and our elementary students would start their day earlier than our current practice. There is much research about child and adolescent development to support this theory.
