I need more sleep too.

.@AdamRuins explains teenagers' bodies are still developing, so they need MORE sleep than adults, 8-10hrs, but they're not wired to fall asleep until at least 11pm. So why do schools start too early to get the sleep they need to be healthy & #AwakeToLearn? https://t.co/4DyXDUYaia

Moving @CWMS_office middle school start times to 7:15am, despite all we know about adolescent sleep changes?? It's asking a lot of young teens to expect them to be #AwakeToLearn when the sun is barely up. Hard on many #teachers too!

@chriscfore Actually, teens DO get more sleep when school starts later. Their mental & physical health improves. Attendance & grades go up - esp for disadvantaged students. Sports injuries go down. #Teachers get students #AwakeToLearn in 1st period.

"One way Gadson believes students can improve their mental health is by starting school a little bit later." 8:45 AM! What a normal time to start you day. #AwakeToLearn

@usedgov @StartSchoolL8r Middle and high schools can help students get enough #sleep by starting classes after 8:30 a.m. as recommended by pediatricians and sleep researchers. You have to be #AwakeToLearn.
#EdLeaders know: teens are not #AwakeToLearn so early in the morning! Moving start times *earlier* is counter to all the peer-reviewed research & expert recommendations that later school start times support student health, well-being, safety & academic performance.
@mnemognose The 7:15 a.m. start times are a tragedy. @StartSchoolL8r has amazing resources and stories to show later start times across the country. We are literally falling backwards @PPSnews
Better #attendance, grades, and test scores are the icing on the cake:
The cake is better mood, #mentalhealth, physical health, #driversafety and #equity.

The quickest, cheapest way to improve learning at schools: Move start times later so adolescents get enough sleep. Great explainer by Lynne Lamberg.
