Later School Openings

     In my opinion, school should start no earlier than 8 a.m. Studies show that childrens brains can't function before that time anyways. So whats the point in starting school as long as we do? Teachers expect us to pay attention and answer difficult questions when were still half asleep. I dont think it's fair to us students that have to deal with teachers getting mad at us for not knowing an answer its not our fault. Most students wake up about an hour before their school starts so for Norton High School that's about 6:40ish which is way to early to be awake. Teenagers should get approximately eight hours of sleep a night so that would mean students would have to go to bed around 10:30. It's a reasonable time to go to sleep but the only problem is that we're assigned so much homework that its hard to go to bed before 11. Thats what I think on later school openings.
