Coming To School Later Analysis

Decent Essays
There are many advantages to coming to school later than usual. But all advantages come with disadvantages. With my experience in school I strongly agree about coming to school later and ending the day later. Coming to school later would have kids paying attention more rather them sleeping. Younger kids parents wouldn't have to pay for daycare sense the school lets out later in the day they could just come by and pick them up and the kids wouldn't have to sit in day care for hours. Waking up in the morning sometimes is a hassle. Kids just don't get enough sleep at night, then you go to school all tired. When you get to school and your in class, if the teacher is speaking for a while your more than likely going to fall asleep sense …show more content…
Then the kids and parents could spend more time together. When you get home you wont be tired and you could do whatever and then around the time you go to bed you will be tired, and fall asleep around a good time and when you wake up you would have had a good night of sleep. There are a couple disadvantages to the school opening later and ending later. When you get older and have a job, you more likely to wake up really early. If you have been waking up early to go to school your whole life then it wouldn't bother you. But if you wake up around ten O' clock for your whole life to go to school when you have to wake up really early for work it could really conflict you being awake during the day. If the school day ends later and you play sports theirs really not any daylight left after school. You could be just stuck in your house for the whole day. When you leave school later you really wouldn't have much time to do anything after school besides go to sleep and prepare for the next day. They're many advantages and disadvantages to starting school later and end it later. But know matter what the situation is you should always pay attention in school and strive to be your best and never fail. school decides the

    School times can sometimes be absurdly early, but because of later start times some problems stir up. Later school start times can increase grades and the well being of the kids, but the downfall of that is that schools have to pay extra for more buses because usually a district only has a few busses, which then makes the school start times staggered. Although the wellbeing of kids is far more important. The idea of staggering school time is smart but if its hurting the health of people I would pay the extra money to keep kids safe. The first reason that school should start later is because it will allow kids to be more well rested and makes it easier to focus.…

    I realize that a later school schedules would mean that most workplaces would also have to adjust times to allow their employees enough time to get their kids to school, but isn’t it worth it. Isn’t giving the children a better shot at a good future more important than what time you start at work? I also get that some would say that the students should just go to bed earlier, then they would get the sleep they need. I know from personal experience that sleeping early just doesn’t work that well. If I manage to get to sleep before 10:00 p.m. I am up and down all night.…

Students can develop several health issues from lack of sleep such as and not limited to anxiety, depression, eating disorders, ADHD, and other issues as well.

    Dear Edmonson County school board members, Have you ever wanted to stay in bed just a little bit longer? That’s how most teenagers in America feels right before school. A new controversy has emerged: should school start at 9:00 a.m. or stay the same?

    In what way are the students benefiting from this? Two reasons time and money. The earlier we start school the earlier the bell can ring at the end of the day. And the earlier we get to leave it gives us more time for after school activities like sports, tutoring, or even just hanging out with friends. As for money, are schools really saving that much money by having an earlier start?…

    If students start earlier then they get to leave earlier (classroom.synonym.com). This opinion is false because even if school will still begin at the same time as usual and kids will still be tired. Even if school did start earlier it would not be worth it for kids and teenagers because they need more sleep, which would mean they would need to go to bed earlier in the evening to get in a full eight hours. With sports, homework and other activities it is not possible for kids to go to bed early enough to get up in the morning. This would only be more harmful, even if it meant getting to leave school earlier.…

You’re not going to be focusing on those fractions, but on how hungry you are, your stomach growling so loud that everyone in the class can hear, and you being tired because you stayed up late finishing your homework. Just about any school-aged child knows the struggle of trying to wake up and go to school before or at 8 a.m.. Today, I will discuss school times and why they should start at a later time.…
