Sleeping In on School Days?

What would be YOUR ideal start time for an 8-hour school day?
Here's one of the things I'm looking at as the new school year gets going:  a study about what time the morning bell rings - and how that affects YOU.  Students at a school in Rhode Island said they got more sleep and felt better when their school's start time was shifted 30 minutes later - so school started at 8:30 a.m. instead of 8:00.

Now the study left a lot of questions unanswered, but we'd love to hear your opinion:  Would you get more sleep if school started 30 minutes later?  How about an hour later?  And what would be your IDEAL start time for an 8-hour school day?
