Senator wants to know if school starts too soon

Chicago Tribune
A state senator wants to know whether Indiana residents think public schools start their fall semesters too early.

Sen. Dennis Kruse, a Republican from Auburn who heads the Senate Education Committee, wants people to take an online survey and offer comments on a new Web site: www.IndianaEducationForum.com.

The site is paid for by Save Indiana Summers, a group of parents and businesses pushing for a law that would prohibit school from starting before the last week in August. But Kruse says he welcomes all opinions on the issue.

Kruse will also hear from the public at the Statehouse during a Sept. 30 meeting at which a legislative study committee will consider the feedback from web comments and survey results.
