Make school days 8am - 2pm

Make school days 8am - 2pm

The Issue

To the school board , and the U.S Department of Education . Kids spend too much time in school and not enough time living they’re lives the way they need to be . They need to learn social skills out on their own . It’s more beneficial to Have experience rather then just given knowledge . Kids need more freedom and time for their social lives . Now I understand 8-10 hours of schooling a day for parents would be very beneficial (if they work 8-10 hour work days) and it would teach children discipline and possibly benefit they’re working habits , but then the child is left with no social life and spend all of their childhood in school . Isn’t a childhood meant to be enjoyed ? Isn’t being a kid supposed to be fun?

Education is one of the most important aspects in a child’s life , but spending too much time cramming information could cause stress and anxiety for children of all ages . With proper lesson planning and staff organization , there should be plenty of time to get all of the information needed together and divided properly into each school day with just 6 hours a day .
