Young people of high school age need 9 to 10 hours of sleep a night, this is due to brain power they need for learning and also to fuel their changing bodies. Also, during the teenage years the sleep-wake cycle changes, so the melatonin release that induces sleep happens later in the evening. This creates a highly energetic teen in the evening and a less energetic person in the morning.

Please join us in celebrating World Sleep Day on Friday, March 13th by wearing pajama pants to school tomorrow! World sleep day is intended to be a celebration of sleep and a call to action on important issues related to sleep, including medicine, education, social aspects and driving.
