Teacher VS Alarm clock

I am NOT a morning person.

ARGHHH!  This morning, I finally rolled out of bed at 7:15.  It's NOT good enough.  Eventually I wanted to get up by 5:30 without hitting the snooze button.  This year, we added 8 additional instructional minutes to our work day.  Our school is starting 5 minutes earlier and ending 3 minutes later.  But before we get into that, let's have a little review on my start time  in the last 2 years...

2013-14 8:15 start time and primary grades ended at 2:00; intermediate ended at 2:35
pretty perfect if you ask me...
2014-15 8:06 start time (additional 9 minutes) and end time was the same 2:00/2:35

Every Thursday, we got out at 1:30, as our prep time.

Now... here is our new start/end time for 2015-2016....
8:01 start time and primary grades end at 2:03; intermediate end at 2:38
We also added an additional 3 minutes to our Thursday early out day to 1:33.

End of rant.



Anyways, I plan to wake up wake up 30 minutes earlier each day.  Tomorrow, hopefully by 6:30, Wednesday by 6:00 and by Thursday and Friday (since they are teacher work days ...) I plan to be up by 5:30 and get to school by 7:30ish......

Did your district add more minutes to your work day?
