Aspen School District administrators have spent the last two months collecting community feedback on a proposed school calendar that eliminates Wednesday early-release days and maintains a split schedule in which elementary school students start earlier than middle and high school students.
Middle and high school students would start at 8:45 a.m. and end at 3:45 p.m. according to the latest version of the proposed calendar
; elementary school students would start at 8 a.m. and end at 3 p.m.
More than 650 survey and feedback form responses provided a mixed bag of opinion with no overarching theme, according to District Superintendent David Baugh.
