Philadelphia school district finalizes new bell timetable for the 2021 school year
When the Philadelphia School District posted an incomplete list of the new school year’s start time on its website last week, many parents were confused and upset. By Monday afternoon, the list had been deleted. On Thursday, the school district gave it another chance to publish “Revised” timetable Across Palumbo College and William H. Ziegler Elementary School. The district spokesperson Monica M. Lewis confirmed to PhillyVoice that the revised list is final.
The school district initially planned to reduce the 28 start times to three levels 7:30 in the morning and 8:15 in the morning. And at 9 a.m., most schools will start at one of these three times.But the final timetable shows that 25 schools start at six other times, including 7:45 a.m., 8 a.m., 8:30 a.m., and 8:45 a.m.
