Upcoming School Time Changes Will Not Apply In North Escambia
June 17, 2008
New money saving school start and dismissal times in the works for the next school year will not apply to North Escambia schools.
Shawn Dennis, assistant superintendent for operations, presented the new start times at a school board workshop Monday, but said the changes would not apply to Bratt Elementary, Carver/Century K-8 School, Molino Park Elementary, Ernest Ward Middle or Northview High School.
For the rest of the county:
- Elementary schools would start at 7:30 a.m. and end at 2:00 p.m.
- High schools would start at 8:30 a.m. and end at 3:35 p.m.
- Middle schools would start at 9:30 a.m. and end at 4:35 p.m.
But there could be some minor time changes for North Escambia students, Associate Superintendent Ronnie Arnold told NorthEscambia.com. The district is proposing adding an additional 30 minutes per day to the elementary schedule. Northview High students could see a minor time change next year as well, as one period is dropped from the daily schedule. Updates to North Escambia school start times will be posted here on NorthEscambia.com.
The start time changes are forecast to save the district an estimated $1.2 million per year by allowing a more efficient use of school buses.
