Alex Pratt, the director of the Student Advocacy Program for Start School Later, explains the benefits. "When we push back school start times," he says, "we see attendance go up, we see better attention in class, and we see better grades. From a health perspective, we see students who are less likely to get into car accidents, less likely to take part in a a wide array of risk behaviors, and less likely to get sick or injured in after-school sports." What do you think is the ideal start time for school? Why? Do the health and academic benefits of a later start outweigh the logistical difficulties? takepart/article/2013/03/15/should-school-start-later
