In the Philippines, from Monday to Friday, school hours usually start from 7:30 am to 4pm or 5pm.  A student needs to wake up at 5 or 6 am in the morning to prepare, goes home at 4 and still they need to do school works that takes hours to finish. If you will assess the everyday life of a student, a great portion is obviously spent only in school and doing school works at home. Because of this factor, most of the students, especially students in high school Due to the restricted time they have after school because they must complete their at-home tasks, the children are unable to socialize and complete their assignments.

• Being a part of student organizations is not only fun but also very fulfilling as you get to experience a whole new level of friendship! You enjoy doing the activities you love with people who also feel the same way! 
• Mental benefits of social interaction through partying include relieving stress, stimulating your mind, improving relationships and ability to connect with others, boosting creativity, and broadens your mindset when faced with problems.

This petition seeks to change the requirement that courses start at 8:00 am and end at 3:00 pm, with the extra time between classes being used for extracurricular club activities, sports, assignments, practices, and quality time for the students.
