Help America's teens achieve higher test scores by starting school days at 10:00 am and stopping school funding cuts!

Created by K.P. on March 24, 2015

Help America's teens achieve higher test scores by starting school days at 10:00 am and stopping federal budget cuts that lead to lack of school funding. There are more than 15,000 districts throughout the country that currently use a 4-day school week with 10-hour long days just to save money and recover from their funding cuts. In addition, numerous surveys agree with the findings that adolescents who do not get enough sleep have an increased risk of being overweight, suffering from depression, are more likely to be in auto accidents, and have lower grades or standardized test scores.

Do you want to see you child wake rested and achieve more in school? If so, please sign this virtual petition to help stop funding cuts and help keep our next generation of scholars well-rested & bright!
