I believe that school days should have a later start time for the sake of teens. The lack of sleep affects teens in many major ways, such as, obesity, depression and an overall lower quality of life comes from the lack of sleep and early start times in schools. Kids are recommended between 8.5 to 9.5 hours of sleep every night to be able to function both physically and mentally. Researchers that studied students from eight different schools have found there is a major increase in attendance,…
they get up and get ready. Then they get to school at 10:00am right on time of 1st period, then at 5:00pm they get on the bus and drive home, but during this time is usually when sport practice, part time jobs, and clubs usually start and some even end by this time.

People want school to start later due to recent studies. I do not agree with this because there needs to be time devoted to sports after school, clubs, and family after school, before it gets dark. School start times should not be later because of time needed afterwards. First off, the reason they want time moved up is because of sleep deprivation among children and teenagers. If people that struggle with sleep deprivation go to sleep sooner, rather than their bad sleep habits. People that go to…

Proponents of a late start are arguing the mental benefits for students, while opponents discuss the problems that could arise for budgets and after-school activities.

Does it feel like school starts too early? Why is it that students always seem too tired to function during the day? If it does, it probably means they may not be getting a sufficient amount of sleep, causing poor intended achievements for both the students and the school. This could be avoided if school start times were pushed back. Schools start around seven-thirty to eight-thirty in the morning and last 7 hours. Many students also have extracurricular activities, which issues those students…
