The Prickly Politics of School Starting Times.
Wahlstrom, Kyla L.
Phi Delta Kappan, v80 n5 p344-47 Jan 1999
Tinkering with school schedules to accommodate adolescents' sleep patterns is politically risky. A University of Minnesota study analyzing stakeholders' attitudes toward later high school starting times showed that changing a school's schedule provokes as emotional a reaction as that of closing a school or changing its attendance area. Open discussion helps. (MLH)
