SCHOOL START TIMES EXPLORATION WEEKLY INFO: ADOLESCENT SLEEP PATTERNS
During puberty, adolescents are biologically programmed to fall asleep later at night (typically 11 p.m. or after, give or take) than children and adults are. Consequently, it is biologically normal ─ and necessary ─ that they rise later in the morning. Most sleep deprivation among middle and high school students is a product of their wake-up time, not their bedtime. (Reports and studies about sleep and sleep cycles, also known as “circadian rhythms,” are available online at StartSchoolLater.net.)
