Pennsylvania Pushes Back School Start Times | Pittsburgh News
Description
Pennsylvania is rolling out grants to help high schools delay start times to 8:30 AM, aligning with teens’ natural sleep rhythms.

This funding aims to ease the transition, boosting attendance, graduation rates, and overall student well-being.
