Schools that have adjusted their schedule to start later than the standard 8:03 a.m schedule have students with better performance, so it would optimal to adjust the start time to 8:30 a.m minimum. By further allowing more time in the morning, both teachers and students can be more satisfied since they can have breakfast or do whatever they wish to do. It is debateful that starting school later means it ends later in the evening, however with the current schedule it causes more harm overall - thus compromise is necessary for better results instead of personal…
In hopes to make your final decision, we have some reasons on why we feel this way. One thing is that students don’t tend to wake up early enough, which would cause them to be late to class all the time and then cause them to miss a lot of classes if you add up there all the minutes they missed. Another reason on, why not to shorten the morning bell is they would fall asleep in class a lot, which wouldn’t be good for the student’s work habits.…
High school classes should begin later in the day and end later in the day to accommodate students' natural sleep clocks, this would get them on a schedule and would also allow them to stay energized through they whole day. Schools should end later in the day so that when students get home, they won't have time to take a nap, which tend to make people stay up later then they need to. Teenagers need lots of sleep and by beginning and ending the classes later would make that a lot easier! If schools were to open up later in the day then students would pay more attention in their classes; They would be more alert and awake. Beginning schools later in the day would have a positive effect on everyone including the teachers and administration,…
First is how it increases our whole ability to learn completely. Constant studies show that ”Insufficient sleep(less than 9.25 hours for a teen )results in poorer reaction time, vigilance, learning and alertness;”(Erde) this quote is very meaningful because these start times something so little may have a very large impact on our futures and our career just because it will make us more vigilant and we will be ready for more. The fact that the thing such as small as a later start time can improve our whole attitude and how we think is amazing and should be definitely be put to the test and tried.…
It would be bad idea to add an extra one an half hour because there would be no time for extracurricular activities, older siblings wouldn’t be able to get their younger brother/ or sister off the elementary school bus, and schools would have to provide a snack for the children because it would interfere with families early dinner time. Can the school afford this? It is very important for families to have family time because families should have a strong bond. Also, kids should have time to get out their energy and have fun instead of learning for nine hours a day. Here are my reasons on why the School Board should not change school hours.…
Education should delay high school start times. On average, high school students are two hours…
if jimmy has good grades it makes him look good and the school will look good. so there for i do believe that a later day start would great for everyone. Also i think it would benefit the teachers because then they would have more time to get stuff done and maybe it'd actually allow them to teach better which would also allow the students to learn better and again earn better grades on class work, homework, and test. but however by doing that and getting out a hour later or possibly more then that it will also give teens and kids less time outside during the day when the sun is up to get something's done and pretty much students and teachers would be living in the dark because you'd always be in school during the day. but still for better grades and more…
There was one thing everyone dreaded about Highschool, the start time. Waking up early to make sure you were ready for the day and being able to catch the bus. High School start times are the reason for so many teens not being able to graduate on time, students grades being low, and the reason for such a low attendance rate. The start time for High School needs to be pushed back later in the morning, this will help kids perform their best during school, make kids so they are present and will help to get more kids to graduate on time. The later start time for High School will truly benefit the students. Several schools have pushed their start time back and the students and schools have made great progression, students have a better chance of…
“Students and teachers should be in favor of later school start time because it results in increased grades, more hours of sleep, and fewer students sleeping in class.” Students should be given a chance to get enough sleep and it may result in higher grades in school and teachers will have more energy to teach student the fundamentals of school better. This method of teaching kids started in 2002 when school boards had the idea starting school at a later time. So students can get a better experience at school…
Many great things are to come from high school classes beginning and ending later in the day would benefit teenagers in high school.

Coming to school and having the energy will help many young teens and young adults with there school work. May get their grades to were they need to be.…
One reason school start times should be later than they are now is because junior high and high school students are “programmed” to stay up late and sleep in. During teenage years, students bodies are designed to stay up later and sleep in. Both When Sleep Becomes A Nightmare, an article written by Scholastic, and the National Sleep Foundation website agree with just that! Nancy Shute, an award-winning science journalist, stated on npr.com “...it’s difficult, if not impossible, for them to fall asleep before 10:30.” If students fall asleep at 10:30 pm and get the recommended amount of rest, which is 9 ½ hours, students should not wake up until 7:00 am. Some schools have already started class at this…
Most high schools in the United States start school before eight a.m. Boards of Education do this to help make transportation easier and to finish the day quicker (Eight). Alas, they seem to forget about the effect of early start times on students. Later start times, anything after eight o’clock in the morning, would benefit students in multiple ways.…
The time is 7:05. You know your alarm is about to go off. All of a sudden your stomach sinks. You forgot to do your three pages of algebra homework. This is a feeling all too familiar for the students of East Jordan Middle High School. This is due to the poor scheduling job. With a 7 hour schedule students are overwhelmed with ideas and thoughts in their head, and they cannot easily transition so quickly from one idea to the next. They also have trouble remembering their homework. With a 6 hour school schedule, it will fix this problem.The school could switch to a 6 hour schedule by eliminating one class from the schedule completely. Students would only have 6 classes not seven. East Jordan Middle High School must switch to a 6 hour class schedule…
The reason it would be good for a detention is because people wouldn’t want to stay longer so it would finally click to students that getting in trouble isn’t fun. I do not think it would be nice to have just because it has more cons than pros. I think they should keep school they usually are they should not add time add longer breaks its already equaled out and if they add things or change it school wouldn’t be fair. I am a person who already hates school and hates attending it but if they added more time I had to be in a classroom I would be apart the percentage of drop outs.…
•My voice is important because of bullying, the bad things in sports, and recycling. "17% of •bullies are reported to an adult."
