is it really worth it?

These poor children are suffering unlike any other student! Waking up at 5 (ish) am? Due to the numerous snow days, burke starts school at 6:40 am. With them waking up this early, sure they are getting the learning penciled into their schedule, but i assume that they are so tired they can't even concentrate. WHS students fall asleep even at 8 in the morning, so imagine trying to learn about WW2 at 6:45 am. Yeah the students aren't even learning because they have no concentration other than their sleep the night before. if you do the math, if they were to just add a week or two of school rather than be at school real early, at least they'll understand what they are learning about. Am I wrong?
