Why Starting School Is Important

Would starting school later really help? Starting later means parents are later to work and kids would be getting out of school later. Some kids have after school activities, so they might not be able to get home early and miss dinner. If school starts later then kids would stay up later and wake up later. They would spend more of the night time doing homework since they are getting home later, and the kids who have after school activities would get home even later and not have enough time to do homework. I think they should should keep their schedule the same and not start school earlier, because parents would not be able to get work early enough, kids who have after school activities would be getting home late, and some kids might not get

Now I am late for school again, I wish it started later… well, it really should not, yes it would lower the amount of tardiness but is it worth it? No some reasons are because it would be hard and for some expensive to handle the switch, Kids need to realize that this is how it is going to be for the rest of your life, and lastly After school tutoring programs and such would be so much more confusing, complicated, and tiring.

For five days out of every week, teenagers fall under a monotonous routine that they must follow even though it may not be preferable. The routine consisting of waking up early, trying staying awake to learn during school, and then working until the next school day with minimal sleep does not consider anything about the teenagers’ health. Not only does waking up very early in the morning damage the health and wellness of students, but it also has an impact on the grades that they receive in school. The stress and focus that students have in class is dependent on the amount of sleep they get each night. It is also unjust to force parents to have to wake up before normal work hours to bring their children to school. More time in the morning allows students to get the sleep they need while staying on track with the work schedule of adults. Schools in the United

The obvious goal for schools across the nation is that their students do well academically and learn how to excel in life. However, students are being restricted from learning and reaching their full potential in school because of the lack of sleep that they are getting. Students are arriving at school with not nearly enough sleep to carry them throughout the day.The main factor as to why students aren’t getting enough sleep is because school is starting to early. If school started later students would receive the amount of sleep that they need in order to be safe and healthy, to excel academically and to keep their bodies as physically healthy as possible.

Most high schools usually start classes around 7:40 a.m. and the last bell is at 2:40 p.m. 7:40 in the morning might not seem all that early but many would disagree. As a high school student, I hear what many of my classmates think about getting up early and coming to school at the break of dawn. Many of them, myself included, think that school should start later in morning. Some people blame this outlook as us just being lazy, which may be true in some cases, but isn’t true to the whole student body.

Research has shown that teenagers experience a charge in their internal sleep clocks so that waking up early and going to sleep early are difficult. Should high schools begin later in the day and end later in the day to accommodate students’ natural sleep clocks? This has been a long debate, between politicians and scientists, to change school hours, for the students, to get better sleep. The original hours and set up for schools were to train students to work in factories during the industrial era of the United States. I think school hours should be changed because students will be more productive, students’ stress levels will decrease, and students will have time to sleep properly.

“An investment in knowledge pays the best interest”, (Benjamin Franklin). One is expected to attend school regularly and perform to their best ability. However, to attend and perform at ones best ability, it is expected that they are in their best state, mentally and physically. Thus, I believe that school should, undoubtably, begin at a later time and end at a later time. I believe that, without question, due to the positive aspects that will result in the students academic, mental and physical conditions. A primary factor in ones mental health is dependant on their quality and quantity of sleep, however, it is said that about 85% of teen students do not achieve this amount. Additionally, in a result to lack of sleep, a increase in stress

As teens become better at thinking abstractly, their social anxiety increases. I choose this topic because I wanted to learn about how sleep actually affects the brain. You will be learning about how it helps the brain. Why the school time should be held back an hour. Also what the consequences are for not getting that sleep you need every night.

The issue of weather high schools should begin classes early in the day or later has been a controversy in our modern day world. A lot of people claim that it should start later in the day due to the health conditions of teenagers but it shouldn’t be. High schools should begin early in the day rather than late.

Research has shown that teenage students would benefit from later starts times at school. As evidence continues to mount that teens should start school later for multiple reasons, the better question to ask is why has not this happened since later school start times promote adolescent well-being. There are numerous areas of research that support this topic. Earlier start times deprive teenagers of much-needed sleep, which can result in poor school performance among other problems. Since starting school before the brain is even fully awake is not beneficial to the students, contrary to our current system, by starting school later high school students would have higher academic performances, fewer automobile accidents, and a lower the risk of teenagers developing depression and obesity.

There are multiple reasons why schools start way too early in the morning. Some reasons are exhausted students, more time to get ready for teachers and students, etc. These reasons support what y schools should start later in the day.

Early school times can heavily affect teens, including us, in many different aspects. Health is our major concern, since teens need at least eight and a half hours to nine hours of sleep, and we sleep more later in teenage years. The Atlantic newspaper says that research shows that different age groups sleep at different times due to their internal clock particularly teens sleep later because of this and it doesn't help that school keeps starting earlier as you move up in grade. Since we are getting less time to sleep, this can create atrocious affects to our academic and our cognitive skills. Being focused, remembering our homework, visual process, are just some of our many cognitive skills that we have. If we can’t sleep enough, all of our

When the rooster crows, the school bell rings. Five days out of the week high school students and teachers wake up and attend school during the early hours of the morning. Does this early schedule affect the students’ abilities to learn and comprehend the knowledge they are given? Does is hinder everything that is being taught in class redundant because students are not retaining any of the information? There is toll taken on the young adults. There are some schools that work against these standards and have a later starting time. Unfortunately, not all schools have taken this route, my high school being one of them.

High school students should be attending school after 8 A.M. Studies have shown that teenagers brains do not actually start functioning until 8 A.M. Even though this is true, “86 percent of schools start before 8:30,” found in a study by SASS (Schools and Staffing Survey). These schools notice that their students are tired and methodical for most of the morning. It is shown that the opposite is true. When starting later in the morning, the students are more alert resulting in better grades and attendance. At Ulster County High School in New York, the school board decided to make changes to the school schedule to start later in the morning and the results were astonishing. According to principal, Thomas Conrad, “The preliminary findings show
