    high school starts at 7:15am (not including "zero period" extra currics), the sun rises at 9am. thousands of kids walking to school in pitch black 30°f weather is a recipe for bad things

      I don’t understand this complaint, this is already how it is now! My school bus came at 6am, so for a good portion of the year I was already going to school in the dark, daylight time or no.

      Even your example doesn’t make sense. If school starts at 7:15, and sunrise is 9am daylight or 8am standard, either way kids are going to school in the dark! Why do I care how long after I’m inside at school or work the sun comes up? If I already missed the sunrise I want the sun to at least be up late after I’m released so I can enjoy it.
