With or without the average amount of sleep needed, it plays a crucial piece in a person’s daily life, impacting their performance and deciding their sleep rhythm. This can be seen in the book, Encyclopedia of Sleep and Dreaming, where it begins to explain how the effects of a full night’s sleep and an all nighter would help a student perform differently; while studying all night is good for immediate memory, those memories would soon be forgotten. However, a full night of rest would allow for permanent memories and an increase in your mental capacity for your learning material. (Carskadon 25). In addition, because all nighters are good for immediate memory, they are good for tests that require memory only ,however a full night of rest would be more beneficial for tests using combination and imagination because it affects one’s creative and spontaneous actions (Carskadon 26). While many students pull all nighters, most of the time it will be unbeneficial to the student because a large amount of the info retained late at night will be forgotten, affecting their performance on the test either way by the lack of sleep or by the reduced amount of time to study. Many students affected by sleep deprivation will also be affected in their daily life which could be seen in a student dozing during class time. If a student begins to doze during class, this would then lead…

Getting the right amount of sleep is very important in everyone's life and are especially important for teenagers. Teenagers have what is called their natural sleep clocks. Therefore, waking up early and going to sleep early is difficult. Being a high school student is an extremely hard job to have, but could it benefit teenagers that classes begin and end later in the day? It most defiantly does benefit the teenager, but you cannot forget about the afterschool activities. If high school classes begin and end later in the day, students will be more focused and successful. It is very difficult for a student to wake up early and be expected to stay focused. For example, he or she has to wake up at the crack of dawn to get ready for a long day of school. His or hers first period class is honors English, but are failing because he cannot stay awake…
Delaying high school schedule, even if only by an hour or just a half hour, would be beneficial to the sleep needs of teenagers. "Studies have show that after puberty, teenagers require more sleep (about nine and half-hours) but get less sleep (about seven and half-hours)" (Silver). After puberty, teens' shift into a delayed phase. Circadian rhythms (sleep patterns) all start and end later in the day than when they had prior puberty (Silver). Due to a teenager's change in sleep patterns, it would be better for them to begin school later than they do now.…

As a high school student myself, I know what it feels like getting lack of sleep and dozing off in class while listening to a horrifying lecture that goes on forever. Also, since I have an after-school activity, I get home late, having to start my homework past seven o’clock. As a result, I go to bed really late, doing homework and studying for tests and quizzes that are to be taken the following…
On average in today’s society most teens don’t like going to school that early in the morning. To have to wake up so early when they only get about seven hours of sleep, to have students be coming into school at 7:30AM or maybe even earlier in some other schools, is not right. Students need to have time at night to get work done, not only schoolwork but also non-schoolwork. Needless to say, the school schedule for high school students needs to be changed and be made where they go in later. That way they get their work done and get enough sleep because without much sleep students will not be getting high grades. A health survey that the University Health Center administered showed them that one in four students say that lack of sleep has affected their academic performance in a bad way (“Sleep Rocks”). Sleep deprivation impairs students’ ability to be alert, pay attention, solve problems, cope with stress, and retain information. Academic performances on students are low due to lack of sleep. Schools should start later so students would get more sleep at home and it would prevent them from sleeping in class, so the students would have more motivation and students’ academic grades would increase. Sleep is an important part to each and every person. It helps…
