In a bid to restore school bus service to pre-pandemic levels and recruit more bus drivers, the Denver school district is standardizing school start times. District officials say the changes are necessary to avoid busing cuts, but the new bell times will mean big shifts for some families.
Before the COVID-19 pandemic, Denver schools had from 20 to 30 different bell times each year, which Denver Public Schools Chief Financial Officer Jim Carpenter said was inefficient and too often resulted in buses being late. This fall, most district schools will start in one of three time windows: 7:30 to 7:40 a.m., 8:05 to 8:25 a.m., and 8:50 to 9:10 a.m.
