The adoption of permanent Daylight Saving Time will most likely have an adjustment period, but students could face the brunt of that.
Darker winter mornings won’t be an unfamiliar obstacle to address, as School District 57 Superintendent Jameel Aziz said northern jurisdictions have been working to address it for some time.
Aziz said its too early to tell if any real concerns would be had, adding it’s something to keep an eye on.
“I think we will have to do some monitoring and see if we’re seeing any impacts.”
“I’m going to say both for the safety sense, as well as attendance sense, where maybe some people are going to have a little harder time waking up in the morning.”
Aziz said the School District will do public service reminders for people to wear reflective clothing, and for drivers to be more alert.
Clocks will move forward one hour at 2:00 a.m. tomorrow (Sunday).
