Senator wats to know if school starts too soon

Sen. Dennis Kruse who heads the Sentate Education Committee, wants people to take an online survey and offer comments on a new website. Kruse will also hear from the public at the Statehouse during a Sept. 30 meeting at which a legislative study committee will consider feedback from web comments and survey results. Will Koch, president of Holiday World in Santa Claus, said his park no longer stays open until Labor Day during the week because so many students are back in school in mid-August. Moving the school start date later in the year would boost tax revenue and save money, in part because it's expensive to cool school during the hottest days of August
