[quote=Anonymous]It will probably never pass and I don't want to get in to a debate about it but I do think it would be a good thing if they could start at 8am. I have read the data ( in popular magazines - not peer reviewed journals) and it does seem as if most agree that teens need more sleep. And, it is not a simple as just telling them to go to bed earlier. I also don't get the " it impacts extracurriculars, sports, argument" people. I started school at 8 or 8:30 and we did lots of things. Also, a lot of kids do club sports as it is hard to make the HS teams and they certainly go to baseball, soccer, and basketball practice at 6, 7, 8. I just think people don't like change and it is expensive. [/quote]
