Would the better thing to do be to vary school hours by season? Add an hour in summer and remove an hour in winter?.

No school in summer.

When we start getting more sun, it’s fine in the morning even with the spring forward.

We go back to standard time in winter because otherwise it stays dark too long.

And all of this ignores the core fact that time zones are way more politically determined than geographically. And that’s a whole other problem

This is basically what Daylight Savings Time does.
