Rejected petition Make School starts at 10:00am and ends at 3:00pm

Every morning, students make themselves wake up at 6 just to get ready in time for school. Their heads ache, eyes sting, and they move throughout the school as ghosts waiting to go home. If school started at 10, maybe they'd enjoy school again and finally feel alive.
Help make school more enjoyable
