Question
Rebuttal on the following
research indicates it should be exactly the opposite. High School students actually require more sleep than adults. Their natural sleep patterns don't have them falling asleep until 11 pm or later, and they generally require up to 10 hours of sleep. Research and biology indicate teens should be the latest start time. Young children, on the other hand, tend to naturally wake earlier in the morning and go to bed earlier in the evening, which indicates their natural schedule would require an earlier start time. Personally, I think it's time that we start doing what's right for kids in education, rather than doing what's convenient for adults.

While it is true that high school students may have a natural tendency to stay up later and require more sleep than adults, it is also important to consider the practical implications of starting school later for them. Many high school students have extracurricular activities, jobs, and other responsibilities that make it difficult for them to get enough sleep no matter how late school starts. Additionally, starting school later could impact family schedules and increase transportation costs for school districts.
On the other hand, research has shown that younger children are more likely to benefit from early start times, as their natural sleep patterns align with an earlier schedule. Young children may also have working parents who need to drop them off at school before heading to work themselves.
Overall, it is important to consider the needs and circumstances of both high school students and younger children when determining school start times. It may be necessary to find a balance that accommodates the needs of both groups rather than advocating for a one-size-fits-all solution.
