We ask the Obama Administration to consider setting an earliest legal time for high schools. Many high schools start at 7:30 AM or earlier, severely limiting high school students' ability to get enough sleep each night.
The negative effects of sleep deprivation include decreased performance and alertness, memory and cognitive impairment, higher risk of injuries, and many others. All of these put together severely diminish the efforts of schools. Please support the health of today's youth by signing this petition.
