The Claymont City Board of Education approved adjusted daily schedules for each school for 2026–27 after transportation staff urged changes to support after‑school bussing; times range from a 7:40 a.m. start at the high school to 8:15 a.m. at the primary school.
The Claymont City Board of Education voted to change student instructional times for the 2026–2027 school year to help with transportation and after‑school activities. The approved schedule sets high school hours at 7:40 a.m.–2:40 p.m., middle school 7:50 a.m.–2:50 p.m., elementary 8:05 a.m.–3:05 p.m., and primary 8:15 a.m.–3:15 p.m.
Board members approved the adjustment after a discussion with Transportation and Cafeteria Supervisor Eric Henry about bussing logistics. The board voted on Item E, with Mrs. Host and Ms. Campbell recorded as voting in favor; the motion carried on roll call. The district will monitor the changes and revisit them if operational problems arise.
