This is also true. Education builds on concepts learned over the course of several days. Miss one of those days, they miss the concepts taught those days. Miss the day they teach order of operations in arithmetic, they have problems suddenly finding the correct answers to the homework. Which affects their attitude and willingness to try to learn. Been there, done that.It’s about learning. Ask any teacher about how lack of attendance interferes with the learning process.
Either you want in loco parentis or you don't. 07:45 isn't too early when classes begin at 08:20. The school MUST be responsive to the community, or it needs to be replaced with better alternatives.Yikes . . . adults already being in the school doesn't mean the kids can be dropped off before the time allowed. It just doesn't. Unless there is a before school program with assigned staff where the kids are kept until it's time to go to their classroom.

Heck the kid i have now has to be in school no later than 7:20 for classes to begin at 7:45
You mistook school systems for teachers. Again. Seems to be your usual default position.What does thinking a teacher wants to play parent have to do with this?
The appropriate time for a parent to drop a kid off totally depends on when the busses begin dropping kids off, when teachers are to report and if there's a before and after school program in place. The vast majority of schools have these programs today as a response to the needs of working parents. All of this is clearly discussed with parents at the beginning of the school year. If something needs to be adjusted or if a parent requires an alternative they should discuss that with their kids teacher and principal. Not just drop them off expecting some adult at the school to deal with them.
I didn’t misunderstand anything. Who do you think deals with the day-to-day issues in those school systems? You seem to think you can have one without the other.You mistook school systems for teachers. Again. Seems to be your usual default position.
