Where could one get a XL tea shirt with the Double Take Amber Ale gale on it. You have a cool emblem I would hope you would have some sort of apparel to a promote a unique product.

Kind Regards,

Thank you for your letter Conor. I applaud your efforts and those of your teacher who is having your class to write to local media.

That said, as a word of advice, this is 2012 – please send any future correspondence or submissions by email. Many media outlets would be happy to post or print your letter – but you should try to make it easy on them. Nobody has the time or desire to retype submissions.

Comment on Should Schools Start Later? Letter to the Editor from Hannah Farrell, 8th Grader at Washington Middle School in Seattle by Richelle Strom

In response to Joe “The Connector” Kennedy’s comment that later start times will not give kids more time and to better prioritize. It is important to consider that teens undergo a shift in their sleep-wake cycle, due to a later release of melatonin. Instead of peaking a 4 am as in adults, it peaks at 7 am in teens. Thus, putting a teen in the classroom at 7 am is equivalent to 4 am for an adult. This shift is why many teens find it hard to sleep before 11 pm. The extent of this hormonal shift is not the same for every teen, some will adapt, but others cannot, so unfortunately, better prioritizing will not make teens sleep earlier.

Thank you Hannah for your Letter to the Editor. You are a role model for the rest of the teens. I think that kids, like adults, don’t realize they are sleep deprived and how detrimental this is their health, learning and safety. If more teens would speak out, like you did, to increase awareness and even demand change, we could change this. Parents in the Northshore school district are trying to change the high schools to later start times. Woodinville H.S. starts at 7:10, and to ride the bus, teens get up at 5:30. One thing I would like parents and teens to know is that college admissions is 80% academic (GPA), and yet our early start times are dictated by sports and extracurricular activities.
