CORNWALL, Ontario – During a Q&A held on Tuesday night, May 18, parents took their concerns to the Student Transportation of Eastern Ontario (STEO) bus consortium about pending changes to start times for elementary and high school students.
Starting in the 2021-2022 academic year, high school students will be starting at 8 a.m., while elementary school students will be starting between 9:15 a.m. and 9:30 a.m.
These new bell times have been phased in across Eastern Ontario starting in 2019, with the United Counties of SD&G being the last region to be implemented.
