Findings

Secondary students are:

  • Getting more sleep, 15 - 30 minutes on average
  • Going to bed at about the same time as before the change
  • Sleeping later
  • Largest positive effect - 7th and 8th graders

Data suggests:

  • Some students may be more alert and less sleepy in class
  • Some students may be staying up later

Measures of Improvement

  • Data will need at least another year of evaluation to determine possible

positive effects

Findings

Parent Feedback

  • Most Parents who provided feedback have appreciated the change for their

students and families; children seem less sleepy and more relaxed in the morning.

  • A small percentage report that they have not seen noticable differences.
  • Other parents stated that they prefer the old schedule based on family

schedules and because they are not seeing positive effects from the change.

SLIDE 7

Findings Staff Feedback

  • In a limited staff response rate:
  • Some staff have appreciated the change for their students; students

seem less sleepy and more relaxed in the morning.

  • Some staff have not seen positive effects for students and have not liked

the schedule change based on their family schedules and/or a later end time negatively impacting student after school schedules.

  • Elementary staff are requesting later bus arrivals in the morning; we are

adjusting.
