The local Board of Education should not start high school earlier. It may not be thwt the students who sleep in class at their desk are lazy. It may be that they cannot handle early hours. It may not only effect the students with C's, D's and F's but it will effect those with A's and B's.
Amy R. Wolfson, an assistant professor of psychology and Mary A. Carskadon, a professor of psychiatry, were workin on a study of students making a transition from 9th to 10th. The studies show that the teenagers were getting less sleep in 10th grade than they did the year before. According to the study, which was continued, high school students weren't staying up later. In fact, they were going to sleep about the same time as before and are still failing.
If the Board of Education starts school early, there will be more students who fail than pass. The chart shows that students with D's and F's get less sleep time, so if the Board of Education start school earlier there will be more students failing. The chart shows that there are more students im Minnesota than rhode Island. students will be getting less sleep time. They will rise later, they might sleep more on weekends because their bodies are so weak.
Why would anyone want to start school earlier. Look at all the effects of starting school earlier. They should start school later so that more students should pay attention and pass their classes.
