Mrs. Sandra Burton read the letter, which said the main reason for wanting first graders to dismiss with the older children was safety. She told the board that because of the abductions occuring recently, parents have been warned not to let young children walk alone and the thoughts of their walking home from school alone on the streets V the first grade teachers. And to teachers claims that first graders cannot handle a full day of instruction, the letter quoted from the final report of the National Commission of asked for information (on the Commission demonstrates three disturbing facts about the use that American schools ,and students make of time: (1) compared to other nations, American students spend much less time on school work; (2) time spent in the classroom is often used ineffectively; and (3) schools are not doing enough to help students develop either the study skills required to use time well or the willingness to spend more time on school work.
