Help Students be Healthy, Advocate for Shorter School Days Today

Students in elementary and high school are demanded to wake up at hours sometimes before their own parents have to be at work. They go to school at the break of dawn, yet don't come home until later afternoon when the sun is starting to set. Extracurricular activities are highly encouraged, yet long school hours make it difficult to participate in those activities and still get adequate time for homework, eating, exercise, relaxation, and sleep. School days should start later, allowing students to get the right amount of sleep and leisure time they need to preform at the best of their abilities. Shortening the day would also allow for class time to be spent more efficiently. Sign this petition to advocate for shorter school days for the health of children in America.
