I'm going to attempt to use this as a topic for a persuasive essay, but before we can get the topics approved, we have to basically debate with the teacher on it, so I'd like to be prepared for some of the arguements I'll be up against. Please provide thoughtful reasoning on your opinion, as to why it's important for schools to begin at one time or another

Early or not, many students face stress in their educational and social life. Would waking up a little early highly affect the amout of stress put on the students?

I know man, test score does suffer!  I want some time to review for the test so i dont forget easily. Even though, i should've wake up earlier but i want to watch Smallville (superman) new episode at 8:00pm (it was at 10:00pm).Even if it was at 10:00, it still does share some same problems. |
