We the people ask the federal government to Call on Congress to act on an issue:

Lets make a difference in our kids lives and set back school hours for better grades and to eliminate sleep deprivation.

Created by S.D. on November 15, 2016

How would you feel being forced to wake up at 5 in the morning everyday? Teens and children are waking up at 5 to 6 in the morning to get ready for school. How are our kids supposed to go to school that early and expected to get great grades and give there full attention. Most children and teens do not fall asleep until 10 to 12 o'clock due to homework and other home events. teens and children need at least 8 and a half hours of sleep. that is nearly impossible when classes are starting before 8 am. Not getting enough sleep can effect not only there mental health but there physical health too. Most teens drink energy drinks to stay awake in class or fall asleep during class all together. for more info. please go to http://khqtoday.com/feature/2014/09/20/setting-back-school-start-times/
