Here is a link to a local story:

Read the first few headlines and you'll have nothing but empathy for the
overcrowding in ps that has brought a split session for these poor
children.

Some of them start class at 7am and go until 12 WITHOUT a break, the
others start at 12 and go until 5.

These children have to go to school in the dark, or return in the dark.
In a city that is definately not a safe place.

My heart goes out to them and their misinformed parents for feeling they
have no alternatives.

with deep empathy,
