As children move into adolescence, their sleep cycles change. Adolescents naturally stay up later and get up later because of how their bodies release melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep. Several studies show that teens cannot get out of this melatonin-induced sleep mode until at least 8:00 a.m., making later school start times desirable. Changing school start times has several benefits, but administrators must also consider the drawbacks of changing a familiar schedule.Teen drivers have several factors against them when it comes to their risk of motor vehicle accidents. Some teens drive while talking with friends or texting on their cell phones, taking their attention away from the road. Others are not mature enough to make good driving decisions, increasing the risk of accidents. What many people do not know is that sleepiness is a major factor in teen crashes. In fact, AAA says that drowsiness contributes to more than 100,000 crashes per year. When teens drive while they are drowsy, they have slowed reaction times and have a hard time paying attention to the road. Adolescents are especially at risk for driving drowsy because of early school start times. Moving school start times to at least 8:00 would give teens the opportunity to get more sleep each night.It is clear that sleep deprivation has a significant effect on academic performance. The American Academy of Sleep Medicine says that a lack of sleep impacts performance by reducing concentration, creating attention deficits, slowing reaction times, increasing distractibility, impairing decision-making skills and causing forgetfulness. AASM also says that sleep-deprived people are more prone to errors. These effects can have a serious impact on test scores and on the grades students receive on class projects and papers. James Maas, Ph.D., a leading expert on sleep, says that trying to educate teenagers so early in the morning does no good. Even if lectures and activities are interesting and stimulating, the urge to sleep still reduces alertness, memory and understanding.]]> 2021-11-04 19:16:01 UTC https://padlet.com/katmcritchie/8f7yybrdzlk8u0dr/wish/1868294466 https://padlet.com/katmcritchie/8f7yybrdzlk8u0dr/wish/1868294566 This article is about how Mississippi was ordered to desegregate schools in 2016.

He wanted to get drafted but never got picked and had to drop out of the draft and give up on his basketball dream. He had a backup plan after college though, and this was to be a truck driver. It benefited him in the long run because he was prepared for failure and was ready and now he lives a successful life and is happy with his life.

This article is about how California moved their school start times back because Gov. Gavin Newsom realized that waking up early and having to do work is affecting high schoolers health.

• Research shows that later school start times can increase the duration and quality of adolescent sleep, which has been linked to health benefits such as lower rates of depression and a reduced chance a teen will be involved in a car crash. 
• A later start to class can force parents to scramble for early morning child care before starting long commutes.
• It also has been linked to health benefits such as lower rates of depression and a reduced chance a teen will be involved in a car crash.

An examination of mortgage-market data indicates some of the continuing challenges black and Hispanic homebuyers and would-be homebuyers face. Among other things, they have a much harder time getting approved for conventional mortgages than whites and Asians, and when they are approved they tend to pay higher interest rates. 

Even if denial rates had remained constant far fewer blacks and Hispanics would be receiving home loans, because mortgage applications from those groups have fallen dramatically

Lower down payments often translate into higher mortgage rates, and all else being equal, higher rates make homeownership less affordable because they increase the amount of a borrower’s monthly income devoted to his or her mortgage payment. 

2015, fewer than two-thirds of black and Hispanic householders had mortgage rates below 5%, compared with 73% of white householders and 83% of Asian householders.
