In S. Asia, I'd get to school by 7:45AM and we'd go to daily assembly for prayers, general announcements, etc. 'til sixth grade.

After moving to Canada:

In junior high school, we'd get to school at 9AM and class would start by 9:15AM after the national anthem and daily announcements.

High school: Got to school by 7:50AM, music played on the PA system until 8AM, after which the Pirates of the Caribbean theme would start to play to urge us to get to class faster. Then the national anthem, daily announcements, and classes would start by 8:20AM.
