Providing Everything You Need
Adds 45 minutes of sleep opportunity for Ridge students Spreads out school traffic between Ridge and Annin Students from RHS can work aftercare at all elementary schools RHS and WAMS 5 fewer minutes in a day Staff working at WAMS who coach at Ridge can easily get to Ridge for athletics Ridge getting out later delays the start of after-school activities Ridge athletes may need to miss more class for some competitions (rotating drop is a mitigator) Elementary students get home on the late side Elementary before care costs would likely go up but after-care costs may go down Annin's school day starts 15 minutes earlier Opportunity to save money by reducing the number of buses/drivers needed for to-from transportation
TRIPLE TIERING
DOUBLE TIERING
Adds 55 minutes of sleep opportunity for Ridge students Spreads out school traffic Students from RHS can work aftercare at OSS and LCS but may not be practical to do so at MPS and CHS Opportunities for creative scheduling with separations between start times Staff working at WAMS who coach at Ridge can easily get to Ridge for athletics Ridge getting out later delays the start of after school activities Ridge athletes may need to miss more class for some competitions (rotating drop is a mitigator) Opportunity to save money by reducing the number of buses/drivers needed for to-from transportation Some PM Votech students may be late to the Votech on science lab days
Ridge students pick up 45 minutes of sleep opportunity Annin students pick up 20 minutes of sleep opportunity No opportunity to reduce number of school buses needed so unlikely to be able to impact transportation costs Simply takes our existing routine and pushes everything back later in the day Some PM Votech students may be late to the Votech on science lab days
ALTERNATIVE TIERING
STATUS QUO
Everyone is used to the status quo and the pros and cons are understood No opportunity to reduce number of school buses needed so unlikely to be able to impact transportation costs No impact on sleep for students
