Any high school that starts before 8:30 AM is not following the science and is certainly not following data! You’re also having a drastic impact on the mental health and wellbeing of students. #startschoollater
High school student leaders from across Tennessee attending SCOPE (Student Congress on Policies in Education) sponsored by the Tennessee School Boards Association overwhelmingly supported later school start times #startschoollater #TSBA #stuvoice
There are best practices for changing school start times - BUT myths and misconceptions often make things harder. We urge Florida communities to check our website startschoollater.net and reach out for help & info! #startschoollater #itcanbedone baynews9.com/fl/tampa/news/…
School start times are not just another school budget or logistical trade-off. They affect the ability of kids to get healthy sleep--which is essential for virtually all aspects of human growth, development & function #startschoollater thesunchronicle.com/news/local_new…

The movement echoes what is happening nationally.... Many districts across the country and region have begun pushing back start times, with 33 out of 500 Pennsylvania districts having changed their hours, according to @StartSchoolL8r #startschoollater post-gazette.com/news/education…

Important trend, especially given the common observation that school bus schedules often "drive" school start times #startschoollater #sleeppeeps #edreform washingtonpost.com/business/2024/…
Study looked at effects of later school start times on teachers. Results showed that high school #teachers reported better sleep quality (65% increase post-change) and increased alertness (51% increase post-change). beibindex.wordpress.com/2024/01/30/eff…
Our Feb newsletter is out! Amazingly, we learned this month that HALF of all US states have now considered legislation related to adolescent sleep and school start times--and we learn about more all the time. At least 11 of these laws have passed. mailchi.mp/startschoollat…
"So much of conversation around school start times has centered on what parents need or what transportation schedule can accommodate. Should be focused on what's healthy & what's been shown to improve student performance." #StartSchoolLater via @nrhoneajc ajc.com/things-to-do/o…
And if you don't think too-early school start times have something to do with this, think again! #startschoollater #sleepmatters goodto.com/wellbeing/well…

Large shifts in daily sleep-wake pattern & staying indoor for work/study pressure disrupts circadian rhythm among young adults and "may" explain higher incidences of mood disorders in this age group. More ☀️daylight = less mental disorders onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/wp…

@Fact Don't be like me and learn—after it's too late—how early school start times force teens into sleep debt precisely when they're most susceptible to suicidality and chronic mental illnesses like anxiety & schizophrenia. (I'm fine. Just got this question wrong on a Psych exam!)
Many teens who sleep less than 8-9 hours suffer from irritability, mood swings and even depression.

Honored to testify in PA on the need for later school start times. Big thanks to Chairman @SenatorArgall & committee for this vital dialogue. More sleep = happier, healthier, smarter students. Here’s to positive changes ahead 🌅 #StudentSuccess #mentalhealth #AANPALF
More sleep leads to better physical and mental health, performance and safety. The data are copious and consistent.
Thousands of high schoolers across the country are spending some of their best years under a cloud of exhaustion from chronic sleep deprivation. Delaying secondary #schoolstarttimes has been shown unequivocally to help them get more sleep.
Grateful for the opportunity to testify before the PA senate education committee yesterday to encourage creation of a law requiring later start times for secondary schools. Thank you, @SenatorArgall for your time and attention! @AASMorg @StartSchoolL8r @pennsleep #sleepeeps

Effects of later school start times on teachers | BEIB ow.ly/QIfU30szA9z
I will vote for any of the school board candidates (regardless of their political affiliation) if they made a commitment to push high school start times back from 8:00 am. There is zero reason why we need to be on campus before 7am.
The amount of homework, length of lunch, variety of food and need for more salt, more books in libraries in Spanish and Arabic, rugs in classrooms to make praying easier, more sports, sports drinks rather than milk at lunch, school start times, pay and support for teachers...
Following on from the 4 day week chat… Can we discuss Secondary School start times? My old school recently announced it’d be starting earlier: at 0830. Why?!? Wasn’t there a study a decade ago that showed teens did a load better if they started at 10?
@john_mason_ @TindallSara @rahulbali @wabenews @HatterLynn @Regan_McCarthy @Sharrison_WFAE @ebmccord @GavinJackson @MaayanSchechter @MariannaBac @BlaiseGainey @SaveStandard We can agree that school start times in many areas need to be reconsidered. The issue will only worsen if we have winter DST. Schools who currently have reasonable starts would be pushed into darkness & those already starting too early would be an additional hour too early.
