They may believe this because teens naturally go to sleep later so if they have to wake up early then they won’t get enough sleep to focus in school. Not being able to focus will cause teens to get worse test scores and their grades will drop. The time that a teen goes to sleep is controlled by his or herself, if they want to be able to get enough sleep then all they have to do is go to sleep earlier. If school were to get pushed to later in the day it is likely that teens will just start going to sleep even later, because they know they won’t have to wake up until later. This is similar to why people stay up later on the weekends than they do on the weekdays. In conclusion instead of changing the time that the entire school starts and ends, it would be easier to just start going to bed earlier so that we can learn and have time for our extracurriculars. School staying the same time that it currently starts is more convenient for students, parents, teachers, and the community. I believe that school should remain at the time of day it currently is, because it leaves more time after school for activities, it is more convenient for parent schedules, and it is more realistic to a college or job
