Some people say that extending school hour's is a bad thing for multiple reason's.I strongly disagree because their are many benefit's to extending school hour's to start at a later time.For example, if state's moved schools hour's to a later time their would be increased performance and reduced absences.There would also be a reduced number of student's falling asleep in class's and much more.

Why Our School Should Have a Longer Recess Ask any middle schooler what their favorite time of the school day, and you will hear the answer “recess” a lot. I think our school, Wilson Southern Middle School, should have a longer recess. We only get ten minutes of recess each day. It should be twenty for the amount of work we do each day. We get so restless.

Topic: Should lunch/recess be longer? Kids would have more time to cool down and take a break from class. They wouldn’t have to take in so much at one time and could contain the information that the teacher is teaching them.

Do you think we have enough recess time in school? I don't think so. I believe that we should have a longer recess in school. Some elementary schools say that they should have no recess for more school time are learning class. We should have longer recess to we get social life and achieve are social skills.

Schools around the world have problems considering starting times. Many parents and teachers enjoy the time schools begin and are in love the fact that schools get out earlier. I for one, believe that school hours should be pushed back for the benefit of the students. If students and teens were able to go to school later, their learning opportunities and attentiveness would raise significantly.

It has been talked about for decades, that students are not getting enough sleep. Due to this statement, some people believe changing the school start time would address the issue. I believe that altering the school start time will actually do more harm than good. Transportation, sports, and lives of parents would be negatively affected by a later school start time.

Everyone has wanted to have more time after school for homework and other things that you like to do? Well i think that school days should be shorter and mostly everyone agrees. Students would have more time for homework and other activities after school. Teachers would also have spare time to grade papers and come up with new assignments.

Firstly, if the school day is shortened, teachers can assign more homework since students have more time after school. This will help students with their time management and make them less stressed. It will give students more opportunities to be kids and have fun. Also, they could do more extra curricular activities which could potentially help them make friends. In addition to being less stressed, students could also create better quality work with the amount of time that they have

A longer school day can make school a lot easier. To begin, longer school days would lead to less confused children. With more time in class, teachers would have a longer time to explain confusing topic. Also teachers would be able to answer more questions that children have. With longer classes a teacher would not only be able to fully explain the topic, but also children would have more time to work in class, and receive help on the work they are doing. Next there would be less homework and it would be easier to do. If the day was longer there would be more time to do homework in class. Therefore, it would be easier to do confusing homework because you would be with the teacher when you did it, so you could ask questions. Also you would have

Most students despise the thought of more school hours. I disagree with the majority, I think that there are great benefits to extending school hours. I have three reasons to support my opinion. Students could get more work done, preparing them better for a higher college education. Stay safer, and not face the dangers of the streets. Students could take more classes, which could give them more high school credits to possibly graduate quicker. I think these are crucial reasons to consider when the debate of extending school comes up.

Anaheim high receives low grades because after school the either go home and don’t do anything or they go hang out with friends and decide to not do any homework. During classes the students decide to do the work at their own convenience, meaning they either do lazy work or they don’t do their work. The students aren’t ready for college. In order to increase student success at Anaheim high schools, we must have longer school hours and a mandatory study hall to prepare them for college and to be successful in life. In the research article “Marita’s Bargain” by Gladwell states that the students “are spending fifty to sixty percent more time learning than the traditional public school student”. Every student has the right to learn at their own rate and the Kipp program gives the student more time to learn the subjects they are struggling

More time, less stress, and an easier learning environment, those are the benefits of having shorter school days. On the other hand, you’d have you’d have a longer school year, and probably a bit more responsibility. But in the end it is worth it, getting to sleep in, and actually being able to get home at a decent time after sports. So would you agree that shorter school days are worth it?

Schools are so much a part of our society, so the accurate length of school days is extremely important. Public opinions on the length of the school days are different. There are a lot of parents and professors concerned that it is hard for children to go to school early in the morning and stay there the whole day. On the other side, some professors try to force students into a nine hour school day. Not so many years ago, school was a main part of my life, and the school days’ structure and length affected my social life and ability to study. From my own experience and some studies that I have seen, students benefit if school days are long.

I think students should not have an 8 hour school day. Most kids do not want to go to school longer than 8 hours. On debate.org a poll named “Should School Days be Shorter” show me that 89% of students said yes and 11% said no. My first reason is that “Students would get home much faster and they’ll have more time for homework and other activities after school.”Also, having a shorter school day would get students to have enough sleep and be energized the next day. My second reason is that the school district will save money and this is a quote from education.seattlepi.com. My third reason is that teachers would work fewer hours and therefore, would get less pay.” So I believe having a shorter school day could benefit the school district to save money and use it for field trips and sports. Students and the school district can be successful with a shorter school day.

Some people say that there shouldn't be recess. The definition of recess is to have a break. Without recess students will not get exercise and they would suffer with extreme boredom. All students need to have a break to play during school. My opinion is the students at Oak Hills Elementary School should have longer recess. I think students would like longer recess because it gives them time to socialize with their friends and play. We do already have about twenty-five minutes to play, but the students that I interviewed said, that is not enough time and I agree. Longer recess will let students have the chance to socialize with their friends, it will get their energy out for class, and if their energy is out, students will have more focus. Those are my reasons why students should have longer recess.
