School Start Time Committee

Purpose: School Start Time Committee members will actively engage with one another as they consider sleep research, benchmark comparisons, Wisconsin education requirements, community input, and related human and economic constraints in order to develop recommendations related to school start time and Board of Education policies supported by the majority of participants.

Critical Success Factors

1. Create a shared understanding of the current environment and all contributing factors
2. Establish a school start time recommendation for elementary, middle, and high school based on sleep research, student performance data, Committee member perspectives and values, family and staff feedback, and human and financial constraints
3. Consider and recommend changes to any related School Board policies necessary to successfully implement the school start time recommendation(s)
