Change High School's start time so students get more sleep.

Created by D.D. on March 15, 2013

High school students aren't getting enough time to sleep. The time schools set for students to wake up and go to school are too low. This is a major issue. High school students are expected to wake up at as early as 5 in the morning to get ready for school where we are then expected to learn everything the educational system has to offer.
When students wake up early, they are not productive and have no interest in anything, I say this for myself and many other classmates in my school. I know and studies have shown students who get more sleep, do better in school. Even if students were to go to bed early and not stay up late but wake up early, they still wake up tired but waking up at a later time lets us wake up rested, energized and ready to accomplish whatever our school throws at us.
