Tuesday Write #3

Late start Monday is better than last years late start Tuesday schedule. Late start Monday allows teachers to better help students, students to leave school at the same time as everyone else, and an easier transition into the week. For example, with everyone leaving school at the same time it allows teachers to offer after school help for any students who chooses to take it. Without the time gap between regular Tuesday ending and A period Tuesday ending it allows any student to see any teacher without having to worry about that teacher teaching a class or having left school already. Having everyone leave at the same time allows people to carpool home whether or not they have an A period. It also lets students plan study groups or work on projects after school with friends. Mondays are hard coming off of a weekend and going straight into the week can be tough. The late start on Monday allows for a nice transition into the week. Monday's shortened periods make for an easier start to the week!

Still, some people may argue that the old late start Tuesday schedule was better. People without an A period might have liked leaving school early more than getting to school late. Maybe parents like the easier traffic after school on tuesdays. But, if your friends or carpool have an A period then you either have to wait for them or leave without them. It can also make the morning traffic a lot more crowded with everyone getting there at the same time.

Altogether, it is pretty obvious that late start Monday is better than last years late start Tuesday schedule.
