I actually remember going to school during the experimental winter - seeing the dawn rise as we sat at our desks was ... odd ... to say the least. I do think it is unreasonable for children to have to go to school in the dark and come home in the dark if it is avoidable. SAD affects so many of us these days. Perhaps we could adjust the school (and work?) day so that it is longer in summer and shorter in winter so we could always have some leisure time in the sunlight? Don't suppose that would prove a popular move, somehow ;-(
