So why is it so hard to start school later?jeffw@lemmy.worldmod to News@lemmy.world – 414 points – 11 months agonpr.org133Post a CommentPreviewYou are viewing a single commentView all commentsShow the parent commentCitation?I am having trouble finding results on both sides I did find on the for side that 9am is better than 8am but I’ve never known a place to start at 8am. On the for side the only empirical backing was that they need 8 hours of sleep but nothing saying that relates to start timeFor what it's worth, my high school started at 8 am. I was more asking if you had a source for the claim that teenagers would respond to the changes by staying up later. Also, here are a couple studies that suggest that later start times are beneficial: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/josh.12388, https://www.science.org/doi/full/10.1126/sciadv.aau6200.
