The fix here doesn't seem to be later start times, it would be earlier bed times. While societies and technology can change quickly, bodies do not change quickly. Study after study has shown that matching your sleep patterns to the sun has massive benefits. These are both physical and mental health benefits. The problem would seem to be that students seem to be going to bed at 1:00 a.m. and of course they're so exhausted that their body doesn't know how to sleep because it missed its sleep cycle. What in the world are they teaching in these schools If they're not teaching a basic biology and how the body clock works. We only need to look at the simple studies of swing shift and night shift workers that have greater health problems. We know our bodies have evolved to be in time with the Sun. So I don't get why the same schools will cry about following the science on all kinds of weird issues but seem to ignore it on this very basic simple one. The proposed solution is to ignore the science and further exacerbate the problems that come with failing to properly sleep. Now obviously there are some parts of the world where there are simply not enough daylight hours to properly clock your body to the Sun. These are the exceptions and not the rules most areas of the world this works out really well. Even in areas of the world close to the equator where you have about equal day night. It is very easy to get into the rhythm of resting when the sun goes down and then waking up to do other things and then resting again before the sun comes up. History shows us this was a typical sleep cycle for people who lived in those areas.
