¨Brett just leave school, no one is going to know you are gone.¨ Is one thing I had to get through my head multiple times on last year on April 20th. The problem I had with leaving was not that I would get caught but just the date and what people would think if I left school on the date 4/20.

An earlier start time ensures an earlier release time letting sports start earlier and homework being done at an earlier time while not as exhausted from the day.
