record = db(db.loc_data.school_id == auth.user_id).select().last()
record.update_record(end_time=request.utcnow+datetime.timedelta(0,19800))

or, REALLY better (for anyone listening, using first() and last() without a 
limitby and orderby is the FIRST thing to change in your app's code, 
performance-wise)

record = db(db.loc_data.school_id == auth.user_id).select(limitby=(0,1), 
orderby=~db.loc_data.id).first()
record.update_record(end_time=request.utcnow+datetime.timedelta(0,19800))
