Half of what public school teaches is just tax-funded brainwashing programs
(Private religious schools are 100% pure brainwashing)

I had to take bus at 6:00 in high school...
7:10 for me!
I don’t understand how going to bed early is a problem.
My high school started at 0800hrs. I had to be up by 0630hrs to catch the bus at 0715hrs, and it was a 15-minute walk to get to it. I went to bed some time between 2130hrs and 2230hrs almost every night like clockwork.
Did I get 10hrs of sleep? No. But the ≈8hrs I did get was enough to ensure I was awake and coherent in the morning.
If kids are tired in the morning, what’s stopping them from going to bed earlier? I was never forced to do so. I just did, because I was getting tired shortly after 2100hrs. I listened to my body.

If they woke up at 6am and caught the bus at 6:40, how is 40 minutes not enough time to get ready?
Depends, I guess. If you’re healthy and have good organizational habits and are confident with someone who makes your breakfast and takes care of everything else while you eat, brush, poop, and dress before walking to the bus stop - and don’t need to be particularly coherent - 40 minutes sounds like plenty.
Why would you need anyone else? My entire morning routine is around 30 minutes and has been from childhood to adulthood. This includes poop, shower, brush, clothes. As a child it was breakfast like cereal. As an adult it's homemade coffee and a banana or bagel. When I worked at a hospital, I'd often get an egg sandwich made in the cafeteria or eggs and other typical American foods for breakfast.
Only recently working from home have I now graduated to making my own eggs, and sometimes egg sandwich. Takes all of 7 minutes.
Damn. Well you go ahead with that jigginess. I wish I could do that.
Me: *alarm goes off*
Me: (5 minutes later) Ooof.
Me: slide-walking to the bathroom with one eye halfway open
etc.
Unpopular opinion, even if people didn’t wake up at 6:30 people would still be complaining [insert time here] is to early
