District Collects School Start Time Feedback

Published September 11, 2017

Williamson County Schools has a new email address for residents who want to send feedback regarding school start times.

Beginning today, parents may email starttimefeedback@wcs.edu to express their thoughts regarding the changes to school start times.

“I will be collecting the information we receive for the first nine weeks of the school year,” said Superintendent Dr. Mike Looney. “I will then assess the feedback and share it with the School Board.”

School start times for the 2017-18 school year were pushed back approximately 20 minutes for all schools in response to concerns about the research indicating social and emotional benefits in allowing adolescents to sleep later.

The first nine week grading period will come to an end Tuesday, October 10.
