School Start Times.... Too early?

Students are very sleep deprived. They are not getting the necessary sleep to be able to function during school. As studies have shown, high school students tend to go to bed later, therefor they tend to wake up later. With the averae high school start time of 7:30, many students are not very awake in their early classes, and are not performing well in class.

If the start times were to be later than 7:30, students would get more sleep, and be more awake during class. This would lead to students performing better during class. Also they would feel better about going to school because they would be more awake since they got a better night sleep.

This brings up the point that the school schedule would have to change, and extracurricular activites would be later, and then the middle and elementary schools would have to change because of the bus schedule.

I think that the benefits outweigh the cons of starting later, although students with extracurriculars would get home later, i think that performance in school would increase and students would be getting better nights sleep which can also help them feel better.

What do you think about school starting later?

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest Movie

The movie shows McMurphy and Bromdem different than I had imagined reading the book. I think that the movie really shows the atmosphere of the ward very well. All the minor characters seem to be portrayed very well. My favorite scene in the movie so far is when McMurphy tries to teach Bromdem how to play basketball. What do you think the One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest movie?
