FYI, west coast schools can't really show address live -it's at 9am on first day

of school - class starts at 9am.

BUT THAT IS NO EXCUSE FOR NOT SHOWING IT LATER

1. Where on earth does class start at 9:00?

The latest I ever had school start was 8:45, and that was at a school that split start times with the other half of the class coming in at 8:00 so that math or reading could be split into smaller groups based on ability, so half of the students would be in class at 8:00.

6. My grade school started at 8:30, junior high at 8:21, and high school at 8:17.

I remember, because of the odd times. Something to do with the length of class times and the length of the day. At any rate, hard to forget spending 4 years of your life having to be somewhere not at 8:15, or 8:20, but at 8:17.

Schools here start at 8:30. Can't imagine a school day starting as late as 9:00.

2. LOL! I'll keep my son out of school so he can see it! :D

3. my school starts at 9am, and it is my daughter's first day in a new school and

she is 7 years old.

So it would be hard to come right in and watch the address - BUT THEY SHOULD SHOW IT IN FULL LATER IN THE DAY

4. By then all the kids on the East Coast, who have seen the speech, will have turned into gay commies

... and The West Coast will be Raptured before it is time to see the speech.

7. Up in Seattle, the school I taught at started at 7:30. 9 am would have felt decadent...
