The Conway School Board brought up a subject that has been bandied about since 2004, when former principal Jack Loynd lobbied for it: starting school at Kennett High School 45 minutes later at 8:15 a.m. The big upside is students perform better with more sleep. The downside is a later schedule conflicts with after-school sports and complicates bus scheduling, particularly for sending towns.

This week’s Tele-Talk question: Do you support starting school 45 minutes later at 8:15 a.m.?
