JCPS officials may delay school start time to 9am

Older Jefferson City public school students may get to sleep in a little more this fall. The board of education last (mon) night gave early approval to a change in start times. The final vote could come next month. If approved, elementary schools would start at 7:50 a.m. The high schools would not start until 8:50, and the middle schoolers would get rolling at 9:00.
