Baguio City National Science Highschool: Shorten the number of school hours

The Issue

        Students start at an early time of 7 in the morning, studies show that this decreases work performances of students. Based on multiple studies, students sleep at 11 p.m and every teenager needs an average of 8-10 hours of sleep, even a blind man can see that we start school too early. Students can perform better with a good night's sleep. It's even more difficult when you realize that all students have to wake up at around 5 a.m. to catch the jeep or hail a taxi.

        To solve this, we wish to shorten the school days in BCNSHS instead of 9 hours, it will be shortened to about 6 hours. Number of school days can be lengthen to accommodate the change in schedule. 

      We need to care about the well-being of every student.
