Imagine getting up and going to school at 4 a.m.! That is what it feels like for the average Middle and High School students in the United States, this is because these students need more sleep than adults therefore getting up at 7 a.m. feels like 4 a.m. to their bodies! Middle and High Schools starting too early each morning in the United States is a problem(1) caused by parents’ early work schedules, after school activities, and sports.(2) There are many solutions to this problem.(3) While some people may say that this is not a problem, I believe think that it is a problem that needs to be solved.(4)
Middle and High School’s starting too early around the U.S is a problem.(Simple) This is because first of all, many(adjectival) kids stress …show more content…
One practical solution that could solve this problem is to swap Middle and High School start times with elementary school start times. This solution is practical because it would be fairly inexpensive and would let students get almost an extra hour of sleep each day as well as leave plenty of sleep each night. Also this solution would not have much of an effect on the elementary students because they need less sleep than Middle and High School students do and are usually up with more energy earlier than Middle and High School students are. Another practical solution that could be used to solve this problem is to push back all start times of schools so the Middle and High Schools would start when(adverbial) the elementary schools used to and the elementary schools would start an hour later than they used to. This solution is practical because it would be fairly easy to do and would allow all students in each district to rest longer for the next day. A third potential solution to this problem is to give students a rest period each day at school where they can sit back and relax and not worry about school for a while. This solution is practical because it would allow students to take a break each day and not stress over school and rest for the next class and be refreshed. All of these solutions are affordable to the do. This is because swapping Middle School and High School start times with elementary school start times would not cost anything because nothing is changing in the way the school is ran except the start times of both schools. Also pushing back all school start times in a district is affordable because the schools are still being used each day and not more so it won’t cost more for more busses or more teachers, most things are staying the same except all start times will be an hour or so later than they used to be. Finally giving students a rest
