WOODLAND, Calif. - All secondary students in Woodland will get a little more rest in the morning starting next year.
A change in start time is required for all secondary schools to be compliant with a new law (SB-328) that takes effect on July 1, 2022.
In order to be compliant, WJUSD only had to change the start times for both comprehensive high schools, Woodland and Pioneer.
Beginning in August, classes at both Woodland and Pioneer high schools will start at 8:30 a.m.
Zero period will still be offered and will begin at 7:30 a.m.
The alternative high school, Cache Creek, and both middle schools currently start at 8:30 a.m. or later and will not be affected by the change.
SB-328 does not apply to elementary schools.
For more information on school start times visit your school’s website.
