New Greenwich School Start Times Decided

GREENWICH, CT—The new school start times have been decided by the Board of Education, but transition details are still being ironed out.

The BOE voted five to three to start Greenwich High at 8:30 a.m., an hour later than the current time, according to Greenwich Time.

Elementary schools will start between 8:15 and 9 a.m. and middle schools will start at 8 a.m. instead of 7:45 a.m.

Those who wanted the change argued that students need more sleep for better health.
