Sen. Kamala Harris introduces Family Friendly School act, a new bill proposing to extend school hours until 6 p.m.
Updated 3 hours ago
WASHINGTON -- Presidential candidate and Oakland native Sen. Kamala Harris is proposing a bill to extend school hours until 6 p.m.
The Family Friendly School Act seeks to better align school hours with parents' work hours.
Kamala argues that school days end hours before 70% of parents end their work day.
In Sen. Harris' press release, she shared, "My mother raised my sister and me while working demanding, long hours, so, I know firsthand that, for many working parents, juggling between school schedules and work schedules is a common cause of stress and financial hardship. But, this does not have to be the case. My bill provides an innovative solution that will help reduce the burden of child care on working families. It is time we modernize the school schedule to better meet the needs of our students and their families."
If the bill is approved, it will not impact every school.
In the proposal for a pilot program, 500 schools serving mainly low-income families would get up to $5 million over five years to keep their doors open until 6 p.m.
The grant is to be used for extracurricular programs and allow access for more youth to attend summer programming.

I'm not sure how it is now and I know different school districts have different times, but thinking back to when I was in school, the school day was too long. They should make the school schedule more like college, at least for high school.
They would need to fill those hours with after school activities.
In japan, basically everyone is in some kind of club. They would need to do that because kids can easily burn out if they are forced to learn for too long.

That would still be bad unless maybe the extra 2 hours is recess
They only go half the year as it is
True but I can't picture this being a good thing regardless. Kids don't have the best attention spans to begin with

I'd have to read the bill, but doesn't this directly address the rising cost of daycare in this country? Why are people bashing this?

Furthermore,
I can't see schools being responsible for dinner or extra food.
Getting a decent lunch and maybe breakfast is already a strain.
I'm not against after school programs, but I don't think school teachers shoukd be mandated to stay but so many additional hours.

I understand what she is trying to do but I completely disagree with it. I don't like being stuck in an office for 9+ hours how do you think a kid is going to feel? Outside of that we have a list of concerns that come up for me. How often are meals going to be offered and what types? Now that kids are getting out later, what options will be available for transportation? If they are spending more time in school does that mean less or no homework? I personally would rather she focused on improving the school systems first. What good is extending the school day if the kids still aren't getting a proper education.
