Don’t you just hate waking up in the morning? It’s cold, dark and you just wanna slip right back into bed because you’re still tired, right? What if I told you we wouldn’t have this problem if school started later in the morning, not only is it more enjoyable for students it also gives great benefits too. School should start later in the morning because students will be healthier, students will also perform better in class, and it will give the students, parents and teachers stress free mornings.

For example, with the school having a later start time you aren’t going to have to be rushed and that makes your day run much more smoothly as you had a stress free morning. Also, a study in LA County showed that 73% of students, teachers and parents felt rushed going to school, if we had the later start time they would be able to get things done and have it run much more smoothly so they won’t be all stressed out in rushed morning. (Later Start Times). Another example, students are tired from going to school and doing their extra curricular activities meaning there’s almost no time to study or do homework at night, but if students had more time in the morning after they wake up to do their homework and extra studying then the school day will go by so much better. They will feel more confident and stressed free that they have their work done thanks to the extra time in the morning. Therefore, with school starting later in the morning it will make stress free morning for students, parents, and teachers by them not having to be rushed by having extra time in the morning which also gives them time to get things done.
Some people say that school shouldn’t start later because parents work schedule might interfere but what happens with that has no comparison to what the students will gain from the later start
