    Do you feel like school should be started later in the morning? Well‚ the school should start later. Instead of school starting in 6:30‚ maybe it should start at 8. If schools delayed the start of the school‚ communities will have reduced tardiness‚ sleeping in class‚ accident rates‚ improved attendance‚ and higher test scores.
