Advantages Of Having School Start Early

Schools should start no later than 8:30 AM. One reason is the extra hours of daylight saved by starting earlier can be used on after school and extracurricular activities. In the article “What is the Advantage of Having School Start Early” by Marie Anderson paragraph three it states that “There are many sports in the school and in extracurricular activities that use daylight to practice outdoors and if the school starts even a half an hour later that is still a half an hour of daylight wasted. It also gives kids who walk home after school the advantage of the extra half an hour of light.” I agree with this because I am an outdoorsy person and during football, track, and hunting season it is nice to be able to go hunting after football practice.
