Middle and high schools around the nation are welcoming students in the morning at the average of 8:07 am‚ nearly 30 minutes earlier than recommended by health officials. Studies show that 20% of all students fall asleep during class on a regular basis‚ and a recent National Sleep Foundation study shows that only 15% of teens get the amount of sleep their brain needs.
