The topic of my article is about if students should start school later due to lack of sleep. The title of my article is “Experts say start school later, but it’s not that easy”. My article is from KLTV or here. Experts say to start school at a later time due to the lack of sleep students get. They say to go to bed sooner but it isn’t as simple as it sounds. Many students are involved in sports activities and don’t get get home until a late time, and usually have homework. This pushes back going to bed and getting less sleep. Not receiving enough sleep causes depression and health effects. Should schools start at a later time? I can relate to the students who are involved in sports and who arrive home late. It’s a lot to juggle when you have homework after you just played a game or ran track and be back at school early the next day. I agree with the experts! I feel students should start school at a later time so we can get more rest. Since I am a student this event affects me greatly. I understand where the experts are coming from! This issue affects because I am involved in sports and I do get home late after a meet. I usually have homework and have to stay up late to finish it. Then next thing I know is that I’m getting up at 6:00 a.m to get ready for school. This impacts the world in many ways. Parents usually drop their kids off at school while they’re on their way to work. If school times get moved back the parents will either be late to work, have them walk to school, or have to sign their child up to ride a bus. Students would most likely improve in school because they are not struggling to stay awake. Just a little extra time could help many students across the nation understand their work a bit more.
