Extending School Hours

There is no reason why schools shouldn’t extend the school day. The obvious solution to these problems is just to extend the school day and turn it into the four day week. Changing this can help the students now and the soon to be students by giving them a better learning experience and end up doing better in life in general. The extended school day has been used in some schools across the U.S. and has proven to work just as or better than the normal day. The extended school day will not only affect the lives of the students helping them to succeed it will also better our society if the next generation of workers are well educated and

Everyone has wanted to have more time after school for homework and other things that you like to do? Well i think that school days should be shorter and mostly everyone agrees. Students would have more time for homework and other activities after school. Teachers would also have spare time to grade papers and come up with new assignments.

If an hour and half of school were added every day, students would miss after school activities. Students will miss the fun extracurricular activities. and students won’t get the exercise they need.

Some schools already have trouble being able to afford supplies and other commodities, such as food and air conditioning, for students during the eight months that they are in school; imagine how much it would cost a school if students went attended school during the hot, humid summer days. Not all schools have a lot of money and struggle enough as it is, going to school longer and having shorter breaks would cause schools to cut certain funds and maybe even get rid of certain programs to just be able to pay for necessities that a school requires.

Some people say that extending school hour's is a bad thing for multiple reason's.I strongly disagree because their are many benefit's to extending school hour's to start at a later time.For example, if state's moved schools hour's to a later time their would be increased performance and reduced absences.There would also be a reduced number of student's falling asleep in class's and much more.

My first reason why you shouldn’t extend the school day is that there would be more work. Students have enough to learn in the time they have school and they don’t need to learn any more because it could create stress and confusion for students. They would have to study more and have a lot more work to do in each class. The teachers wouldn’t stress much but with more work for students they will stress more than they should. And also it might be too much information for students to handle.

School has always been seen as boring and unexciting by many students, so just the thought of making longer school days is unbelievable for some. Many students, like me, believe that longer school days wouldn’t be the best idea to improve overall student academic success. I believe that creating a longer school day would prevent students participating in sports and other out of school interests. It also would be very expensive for the school to create longer school days.

Clearly, school days shouldn’t be extended. It’s tough enough with 6 ½ hours of school, so why add additional hours to it? We are lead to this opinion because students are getting stressed, schools need to pay a lot of money to pay teachers and for supplies to last the extended hours, and the students don’t have enough time to do other

School seems to be stressful enough as It is, so why make the day longer? School Is an eight hour long process of continuous thinking and to make it better, most of us students have three or more hours of homework to do. Why would it make any sense to torture us even more? I don’t think that the school board should add one and a half hours to school.

Adding one and a half more hours of school will leave us too tired to do the things that we need to do in the afternoon which will lead to procrastination. If one and a half hours are added to a regular school timing, then the duration will be changed to eight hours and 15 minutes. Transportation is then, also added to those numbers. This means that kids will be going to school for a longer period of time than adults go to their jobs. An average adult's job goes from nine to five. It is proven that children work more efficiently on their homework when there is sunlight. Having the usual school times is fine because kids like us finish homework during daylight and we still have the energy to do it. With all the tiredness from school and being dark outside, no student will have the motivation to complete their homework or do any

I think having school an hour and a half longer would be a bad idea. I disagree with the idea of having school an hour and a half longer. I think that seven hours of school is enough. We will not really have time for sports and homework after school. I think that if we did not have any homework or sports to do, then that might be okay. I think that we should not have to go to school for another hour and a half because of sports, hanging out with family, and going fishing.

Would it be good to have longer school days? The school board is thinking about adding 1 hour and 30 minutes to school days. I think it is a very bad choice by the school board to add more time to school.

Have you ever been so stressed out, and tired of everything? Well students all across America feel this way. With school years winding down teachers are putting too much stress among the students to do well on state test and school assignments. So as a solution to the problem many districts have had the idea of extending the school day. This is a bad idea because the districts are putting out unneeded money, and for what reason?

Some families already have plans for as soon as they get out and on that exact day too. So if the year was longer then they wouldn’t be able to go there at the time that they always do, or they would miss school cause of it. Lots of kids already miss the last day or so of school, I don’t think that the teachers or school board would be too happy about even more kids missing school. It would just mess up everyones routine and fun, and they would loose time to spend with their fmaily or friends because they have to spend it at school.

First increasing school days would make students inefficient. One reason is that this extra time would make some students clock in 12 hour days when extracurricular activities, and transportation are taken into effect. This would make students tired and burn out. A quote from a student says “everyday I get home from school and I already have no free
