Hello!
The vote on A3816 (to mandate that NJ high schools start no later than 8:30 am) will hopefully be coming up soon. Keep an eye out for updates for ways to take action in September! 

There will be a free Webinar on Wednesday, August 31, 2022 from 12:30-1:30 pm, entitled Aligning School Start Times for Adolescent Health: The Case for Starting School Later. 

More information: https://njaap.org/start-times/

Webinar registration: https://njaap.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_aR4gyqkIT5CawwFEpp5GNg

This is intended to help people better understand adolescents' sleep needs, and the important rationale for later high school start times.

Consider sharing it with any potentially interested Superintendents, School Administrators, Board of Ed Members, High School Principals, School Nurses, Parents, etc. 

There is another webinar planned in September, which will include a panel with superintendents that have made this change happen and innovative solutions to this issue. I'll be sharing the information about that webinar when it's available!
