Shorter School Days
Why the school should start at 9:50 instead of 8:50.

Are you tired of having to go to school at 8:50 in the morning so it's me. Everyday I have school I'm so tired and not ready for school. If you do not need so much time from school days, our school days should be as long as they are. Because we need to go to school for 7 long hours of school each day when we only need 5 or 6. If students had a shorter school day, teachers could expect students to finish more homework. It would also allow children to have more time to study. Shorter school days would allow students to have more time to do after school activities.

Having a shorter day would allow children to complete more tasks. If the children could complete more homework they would get

    Therefor I don’t think our school board should add time to each school day. I think we should keep our schedule starting at 7:30 and ending at 2:30. That way we can get home do chores, play and go to any afterschool activities. If we changed our school hours that would interfere with parents/guardians work schedules. Now with the schedules our school has we don’t get to restless with the teachers or other…

    Schools should end later. From my personal experience, I usually end school and then have hours of extra curricular activities, because I am a dancer. This limits my time that I am able to spend on homework, and causes me to stress out. Also, it forces me to go to bed later and not get enough sleep for a growing teen. If school ended earlier I would be able to finish my homework earlier and get to go to bed earlier which would enable me to then get more sleep. Finally, I would get to spend more time with family. I am always rushing home from school, right to my homework and then off to dance, and then back home for homework. I never get to talk to my family and tell them about my day.…

    I think school should started later because kids need a full sleep. I think if school started later kids would learn better and not sleep in class. A later school start time has a positive effect on students’ grades. A later start gives students a longer attention span and a better morning.Schools should make sure their students are well rested and ready for a long day of learning. School should start later in the morning so students can get a full recommended nine and a half hours of sleep. When students must wake up early enough to get to class by 8 am, the result can be a severe sleep deficit. A delayed start time could help teens sleep during their natural sleep/wake cycles. Teens may be less likely to depend on caffeine to stay awake…

    Some people believe that the school starting time should be pushed back to 10 rather than 8. There are researches that state many reasons for school to start later. Some researches stated that sleepy teens getting behind the wheel is a danger, absence rates have dropped in many schools that have had this transition, and kids and teens would most likely get the proper amount of sleep each night. On the other hand, some people may argue that schedules would be pushed back.

    School would be better if the day/classes were a little longer so we could learn more than what we learn now so the classes should be longer. If the school had bigger lockers so we could put more stuff in there instead of the stuff in our lockers like books and notebooks and folders being smushed and bent instead of the lockers being tall and skinny they could be medium sized and wide. The other thing is if people could pick up their trash at lunch instead of the custodian doing all of it.…
