I am concerned with the new school schedule, as are many of my friends with children in the district. For those of us that are in a family with two full time working parents our question is what are we to do with our small children for an extra hour and a half every Monday, as it is not feasible to adjust our work schedule. We live too close to the school for our children to catch the school bus, and wouldn't leave them home alone anyway.  One of our children will start kindergarten at Borah and the other will be starting the 1st grade/Amy Secord, letter to the editor, Coeur d'Alene Press.

Question: Do you know of a family that will be affected by the new Coeur d'Alene School District schedule that calls for classes to begin later on Mondays to allow teachers to collaborate?
