Why We Should Stay School Hours

Decent Essays
Have you ever wanted more time off of school by adding more hours to a normal school days? Well I don’t think think we should because students feel stress already and adding another hour would not help any. So I believe that our school days should stay the same because you would already be tired and your brain would be tired, you won’t have time at home, and making up work will be hard. I think if school goes on any longer than students won’t be focused and they will be tired. At the end of the day you are already tired and hungry. In addition, with one more block you will be tired and your grade in that class with be bad. Also, if you get homework in that class then you will not have time to do it at home. So overall,

    Have you ever been late to school because you slept in. Well I have done that because I did not go to bed at the right time. Mostly everyone has a time to be in bed, because of school in the morning and some kids don’t follow that rule which the students should. The students should follow that rule because they have school in the morning and they have to be there early. I believe that the time of school should stay the same because it would cost more money, you wouldn't have problems if you went to bed earlier, and it would disrupt after-school activities if we went later.…

    In the U.S, about 25% of high school freshman dropout and fail to graduate. About 19 percent of the dropouts are because the kids had to help their families make money. Also, kids from low income areas are 2.4 times more likely to drop out than middle income kids. I don’t think kids should have to stay in school until they are 18, because they might need to help their families get money, and forcing kids to go to school can create problems for other students as well as teachers. According to Missy Remiss on WSCH, forcing kids to stay in school when they don’t want to be “can cause problems for teachers and other students as well”.…

    There are frequently homework complaints, normally on the quantity and time to complete it. With a lengthy school day, students would dread having to do schoolwork outside of school as they simply wouldn’t have time to complete it. In relation, another concern is waking up early after little sleep from the night before. With little time to finish homework, a student has the option to either go to bed early and not get homework done, or to do homework and lose hours of shuteye. This would be the case if there was a longer school day.…

    School isn't that bad, why not just make it longer? If you give children massed time in their classes, or class, they will obviously have maximum time to work on what they are working with. A wider range of time would allow them to better understand and hopefully finish their work better and cause increased efficiency, especially when a teacher is near. The supervision of teachers should prevent them from slacking off, and not completing work, being less work is less learning. Second, you will likely be commonly left with extra class time, or free-time.…

    My topic is late school start and and I stand supporting a late start. I would much rather support late school start then an early start because, students will be missing the energy needed to carry on with the rest of the day. Even though late school start will be bad for a teacher whats the point in teaching early if the students won't be able to learn. This will be bad for both the teachers job and the students reason to even be there if they won't have energy for the day. I think that if school allowed us to go to school at 9:00 we would feel more awake and happy.…

    I agree with the school board adding one and a half ours to school each day. My reasons for agreeing with this is that their isn’t enough time in the day for teachers to cover anything properly, Students may need one on one time with their teacher but there isn’t enough time for teachers to get to everyone, and parents may have more personal time to themselves. I agree that school hours should be extended because teachers don’t have enough time to to cover everything thoroughly. Many teachers need and want longer school days to teach the students everything they have plan and not just set aside to be forgotten. Teachers need the extra time to get through everything they want to teach and make sure that all the students understand what they…

    Each school day should be longer because it would benefit decisions made upon career choices of the youth. “Less than half of Americans- 46 percent- finish college” (“Statistics- The Education Crisis”). Students do not graduate from college because there is an abundance of time spent contemplating which career would suit them best and what classes to take. Added days and hours of school throughout the year would allow students more time to experiment in different environments to challenge and find themselves.…

    Students are overworking their brains and their bodies. “Longer school days could result in attention deficit and fatigue, making the extra class time ineffective.” By shortening the school days, students will have more time to focus on other things. Students will have more time to study for upcoming tests or quizzes, and would still have time to socialize. Students will have more time to sleep or rest which results in students staying…
