Healthy Start Times Virtual Events
(Encuesta sobre los horarios de entrada saludable eventos comunitarios virtuales)
To help support the health and well-being of our adolescent students, the DPS Board of Education has voted to move to later school start times for all middle and high schools for the 2023-24 school year. The Healthy Start Times initiative will mean more rest for older students, leading to better attendance rates and academic outcomes, and better physical and mental health overall. With this change, middle and high schools will start their day at 8:20am or later, and elementary students, who are more able to obtain sufficient sleep, will start their day earlier.
Please join us for an upcoming virtual event to provide feedback, ask questions, and learn more about why Healthy Start Times will help our Denver students thrive!
English: Wednesday, Nov. 3, 6-7pm
En Español: Martes, 9 de Nov, 6-7pm
Visit HealthyStartTimes.dpsk12.org or call 720-423-3054 to learn more.
