TROY Troy School District high schoolers during the 2022-2023 school year and beyond will be able to get a little extra shuteye each morning before having to wake up for school.
The Board of Education voted 5-1 at an April 20 regular meeting to approve a resolution to implement a high school start time of 8 a.m. or later beginning in the fall of 2022.
Trustee Elizabeth Hammond voted against the resolution, citing concerns the district lacked available revenue to fund the change. Trustee Nancy Philippart was absent from the meeting, but she electronically submitted her support for the resolution.
