The later they start, then the less time they'll have to get in trouble after school. Basically no one gets in trouble BEFORE school, right? Oh wait.. I got suspended once before school. Is there any studies on whether or not people are more likely to get in trouble based on time of day?
Afternoon rush hour tends to be worst than morning rush hour since more people leave at the end of the workday at the same time than arrive at the start of the workday. For schools, does letting everyone out at the same time create more opportunities for conflict and trouble? Or does the before school period that's usually unstructured allow more due to how little supervision there is? For my schooling, I remember far more after school conflict, most arising from events during the school day. Kids tend to forget grudges much easier than adults so maybe in the morning they're not as upset at the insult they heard from a classmate as they were the previous afternoon.
