Orange County Public Schools invites all families, employees and community members to participate in the School Start Times Survey to help the district decide whether to change school start times for high schools and elementary schools. Your participation is important because it ensures all our families’ voices are heard in this process.
Florida Statute mandates that school districts set middle and high school start times later in the morning, unless the district can provide a report including how their students, employees, families and community members feel about the change.
Research stresses the importance of middle and high school students getting enough sleep, and moving high school start times to later in the morning may help. Under the proposed change, elementary schools would start earlier than middle schools and high schools.
Please take a moment to answer the questions to this survey.

Dear Forsyth Woods Families,
As we move into the heart of the 2025–2026 school year, I want to take a moment to reflect on the incredible energy and growth we’ve seen so far. Our students have settled into their routines, our classrooms are buzzing with curiosity, and our school community continues to shine with collaboration and care.
This fall, we are proud to continue building on the strong foundation we set at the start of the year. Our focus remains on:
We are also continuing our commitment to ensuring that every child receives the academic and emotional support they need to thrive. From interactive homework to targeted interventions, our team is working hard to make learning both rigorous and joyful.
Thank you for your continued partnership and trust. Whether through a kind word, a volunteer hour, or simply showing up for your child, you make Forsyth Woods a better place every day.
Let’s keep the momentum going and make this fall a season of achievement, connection, and celebration.
With appreciation,
Kelly A. Maldonado
