Later Start Times for Better School?

Sunday, September 15, 13



Schools should have a later start time...







...allowing students to be rested ,

while increasing their ability to learn and lowering behavioral issues.












According to reports in

Psychology Today:

Starting school 1 hour later...

-Allows one more hour of sleep-Less difficulty of staying awake during class-Improved grades (compared to students starting earlier)

Cline (Ph.D.), J. (February 27, 2011). Do Later School Start Times Really High School Students? Psychology Today



Students are not receiving the education that they should be...





due to their mind’s lack of rest.







The benefits of a later start time for school can help alleviate numerous issues while increasing the ability to learn.



-Reduce distractions

-by increasing focusand

concentration








This creates a learning environment where education is the focus compared

to behavioral issues...





...instead of teaching to a classroom of absentee

Students that benefit from a better educational experience (in primary and secondary school)...





...are more likely to move on to higher education.





By utilizing beneficial behaviors that start in school,




















We learn to take the “weight of

the world” off our tired minds...





...and benefit into adulthood.




School systems will start to understand the positives that are associated with a later start time,






both to the students

and to the

teachers.







The habits we form, follow us for life:

Later school day = a rested mind.

A rested mind = better focus.

Better focus = higher accomplishments.

Higher accomplishments = better quality of life.


Better sleep habits are beneficial, not only in school...

















...but leads to a

better adult

lifestyle!http://www.flickr.com/photos/16230215@N08/6984394425/
