Shifting School Start and End Times
Shifting School Start and End Times
Our district is dedicated to supporting the health and well-being of all Baldwinsville students. To better align with research about both the importance of sleep for adolescents and correlation of later start times to improved outcomes at school, the Baldwinsville Central School District has launched a study exploring the impact of shifting the school start and end times for grades Pre-Kindergarten through 12.
This shift would begin in 2028.
