I strongly believe in the compelling ideas expressed by Julia O. in her article “Changing School Start Times.” It is true that teenagers tend to stay up late, as I myself have done; however, it’s great to know that my excuse – “It’s physically impossible to fall asleep early” – is backed by scientific research. As I read her piece, I could relate to the exhausting demands of the “average of 3.1 hours of homework per night,” since I am an AP student. When my school has a late start, I am always energized and feel like I can absorb more knowledge.

Thank you, Julia, for portraying the struggle of many teens to an audience that can hopefully make a change.
