Okay, this is what I've been saying all along? I didn't need a published study to tell me that starting school later helps students get better grades, but I guess it helps the cause. Scientists at the University of Washington monitored the sleep of students before and after schools changed their start time to 8:45 from 7:50AM, which led students at economically disadvantaged schools to get higher grades and fewer absences.

7:50AM is a truly insane time to start school, and it's hard for me to imagine that this is something I did in high school. Maybe my grades would have been better if I had been allowed even just one more hour of sleep a day. Let the kids sleep!
