SCHOOLS: Changes in school start times

In the Unionville-Chadds Ford School District, the upcoming school year will bring some changes in the timing of the school day as well. For elementary school pupils, the day will start at 9:10 a.m. and will end at 3:40 p.m. For students at Patton Middle School and the high school, the school day will run from 8 a.m. to 2:43 p.m.
In the words of the district administrators: "We are all now in the mode of transitioning from summer to the start of the school year. This year that transition includes new routines around new school start times.  Bus pick-up times will shift, drop off times have changed and so have the bell schedules. We are here to help all stakeholders with the transition. The School Start Time website is a central resource for all items related School Start Times, providing background for the decision and now continuing as a resource for the implementation and ongoing evaluation."
