Anyone with three braincells can infer that the other commenter wasn’t trying to insinuate you should leave a physically or developmentally disabled teenager to their own devices

Schools have to accommodate everyone's needs, not just the able.

And the schools have a legal obligation to do that.

Exactly. Starting later also doesn't account for the fact that they would essentially need to double the amount of busses and drivers because the busses wouldn't be able to do high schools first then middle and elementary students. While also only paying thkse drivers for one trip making bus driver and even less desirable job.
