Holden Culotta This is low-hanging fruit for anyone who cares about teen mental health, safety & well-being. Schools used to start at sane, humane hours that gave students a chance for healthy sleep. Let's make it happen again! #startschoollater #sleepmatters

Holden Culotta Yesterday I learned of a school district that starts its bus runs at 4:52 am! It doesn't matter how early a teen "goes to bed" with hours like that. But many families are required by law to deprive their children of sleep to send them to school. #startschoollater

The alarms on A’Nya Lucas’ phone go off at 5, 5:15, 5:20 and 5:30am so she can get out the door by 6:08. The time between her first alarm and her first period class (7:45am) is nearly 3 hours. She won’t get back home until 6 or 7pm. #startschoollater thebaltimorebanner.com/education/k-12…

“All of the research from around the world tells us that students in middle & high school shouldn’t start school early & for the life of me, in Baton Rouge, we have students on the corner at 5:30 in the morning waiting on a bus" #startschoollater unfilteredwithkiran.com/ebr-school-dis…

Sleep specialist and clinical hypnotist Jeffrey Rose says the nationwide push to start high schools later would boost students’ medical and behavioral benefits, and may be the “greatest reform you can make for high school education” #startschoollater ntd.com/sleep-speciali…

Sleeping in sweet spot? New findings suggest that up to 2 extra weekend sleep hours reduce anxiety in teens missing out on weekday sleep (i.e., MOST teens) #startschoollater neurosciencenews.com/weekend-sleep-…

Counting the precise number of schools that have “made the change” continues to be a challenge, but policies to ensure later school start times have unquestionably vastly improved the lives of millions of children across the nation #startschoollater terraziporyn.substack.com/p/how-many-sch…

There is no doubt starting school later would significantly benefit health & wellbeing of NJ students, especially middle and high schoolers. Still, whenever a later start time is proposed there is significant pushback from parents #startschoollater nj1015.com/new-jersey-sch…

We legislate safe (or unsafe) work hours for kids but feel we can't do the same for school hours. Sad. #startschoollater #sleepmatters nbc4i.com/news/politics/…
