The Anchorage School Board voted Tuesday to change school start times, but postponed the changes until the 2024-2025 school year.
While written testimony was nearly an even split between those in favor and those against, all of the people who testified to the board in person on Tuesday opposed the measure. Kevin Klott is a teacher and coach at Goldenview Middle School who feels that students will stay up regardless of when school starts.
“When I hear students tell me that they didn’t get enough sleep and I ask them why, I get two responses: either they were on their phones or they were playing video games,” Klott said. “So, maybe instead of spending resources to shift an entire community’s schedule, perhaps we could focus more of our time and conversations on student screen time and social media usage.
After voting 4-3 to postpone the changes until the fall of 2024, the board then voted 6-1 in favor of the measure as a whole.
