How you can give your opinion on NJ school start times

For a long time now, parents have complained that high school start times are far too early. Turns out the American Academy of Pediatrics backs them up with science. Teenagers natural body clocks are geared toward later start times and sleep deprived students can suffer a decline in academic performance along with physical and mental health issues.

Now New Jersey is studying this and is holding public hearings beginning this week. Where can you make your opinion heard?

For those who are the most busy, which is almost all of us, perhaps the best thing to do is send an email to:
