On Tuesday, Pinellas County School Board members voted to approve a new bell schedule that requires elementary students to be at school at either 7:35 a.m., 8:35 a.m. or 9:20 a.m. Middle schoolers will start class 10 minutes earlier, at 9:20 a.m. And high school schedules will start at the same time, 7:05 a.m.
