This will never happen, and the reason is that School (Elementary, Middle, and to some extent even High School) isn't really about educating our children; evidence suggests that people who start school in 5th or 9th grade end up doing as well (or even better) by 12th.
School is socialized daycare, so parents can work. If a country can accept that, and stop forcing children to learn things at absurdly young ages, then maybe we can reach the point where children who need rest can simply arrive at school and sleep some more, comfortably and unreproachably. But I highly doubt that will ever happen in America.
