Doctors: Early School Start Times Unhealthy for Students:

(Sara Cheshire, CNN) If you think school starts too early, you aren’t the only one.
A new policy statement published by the American Academy of Pediatrics is on the side of groggy students falling asleep at their desks and their parents who are tired of nagging them to get out of bed in the morning.
They say that lack of sleep in adolescents causes poor academic performance and poses a serious public health concern. Traffic accidents, depression and obesity can result, with schools that start too early contributing to the problem.
My Commentary: State education camps exist to teach conformity and obedience to the next generation of tax-serfs. These places are mental and spiritual graveyards – not conductive to thinking, nor to learning!
