Should high school start later than 8?

<p>Most schools start around 8'o clock, which, we all know is too early for our circadian rhythm, which leaves us less acute and focused and thus, less prepared for school. </p>

<p>How do you feel about pushing the time to 9, as some schools have done? I for one, am all for it.</p>

<p>I would hate that. Takes more time out of the day.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>My school starts at 7:15, and it is indeed quite frustrating.</p>

<p>My school starts at 7:15. I have no problems with it. I get out at 2.</p>

<p>Yeah. As much as I hate school starting at 7:15, I like getting out at 2:20.</p>

<p>My school ends at 2:30.</p>

<p>ah QQ you have to wake up early. If you do not like being drowsy go to bed early.</p>

<p>My school starts at 8, and ends at 3:45.</p>

<p>I don’t mind waking up early; I am an early riser. I go to bed around 10, and wake up around 6 every day during the school year. Weekends I wake up at 7.</p>

<p>I wake up at 6 in the summer too. I like getting up early. I write for a couple of hours before tennis at 10.</p>

<p>School starts: 8:45
School ends: 3:50.
****ing Ew.</p>

<p>That is tough, getting out so late. I would hate that, but less than getting up early.</p>

<p>Wow guys. Class starts at 8:00 and ends at 2:15 for me. Oh, and seniors are done with classes and finals already (if you weren’t exempt). It’s awesome.</p>

<p>Wow 7.15? That’s when I get up!</p>

<p>My school has tutor time (stuff like role-check, notices) at 8:30, and classes start around about 8:45. Then it ends at 3:30.
I remember in elementary school (where my sister attends) it starts at 9:00 and ends at 3:00…</p>

<p>Finishing sports on an average day at like 7 o clock would suck!</p>

<p>Classes start at 8:20 and end at 12:45. Talk about a win school day.</p>

<p>starts at 8:30 ends at 12:45?? Is that even possible? You must have like, open campus or no afternoon classes. My school doesn’t allow that. :(</p>

<p>My school starts at 7:30 and ends at 2:30, but I have athletic study hall 3 days a week so I come in at 9:30 :)</p>

<p>I start at 7:30 and we get out at 2:00. I wouldn’t mind starting at eight or something but no later. I like getting out early. If we ended later, how would I do last minute papers/projects on time?!</p>

<p>^ Stay up at night?! Then get up late the next morning… that’s what some of my friends do.</p>

<p>I don’t think that I would be too fond of that. I wouldn’t mind going to school at 6 am, as long as I was enabled to leave earlier.</p>

<p>My school starts at 7:40. Lots of people think it’s too early, but I don’t have trouble waking up so I really don’t care too much.</p>

<p>If anything, I think that instead of aiming to create a schedule that will please everyone, my school should work on improving the caliber of academics and teachers instead.</p>
