Brighton: Board was within its rights to change start time proposal

The Manhattan-Ogden Board of Education didn’t violate state public meeting rules in changing the district’s start times, the board president says.

The board at its Dec. 17 meeting voted 5-2 to change schedules for next school year, pushing elementary start times more than an hour earlier, and moving middle and high school start times later. The main impetus was a bus driver shortage; the district doesn’t need as many drivers if it uses a system with three different start times instead of two.

Since then, number of parents are complaining that the USD 383 school board violated procedural rules to approve the switch. Some are even circulating petitions on social media demanding the board vote again.
