Nap Time!!

hello there,

As you walk down the halls of Albert Lea High School its as dead as a graveyard. Everyone walking by is half asleep and not really paying attention to where they are going. There's always groups of people heading to class together, but no one is talking because they're all too exhausted to let anything come out of their mouths. Teachers have a hard time getting some kids to focus and get involved in the class, which becomes an even bigger hassle to the already over worked educators.

Now, a lot of people say we should just start school later, but I don't really see how that would work for a lot of people. We get home late enough with church, sports, plays, and whatever else goes on in our busy lives. And then we have to stay up even later doing homework. So I have come up with a simple solution for this problem. Nap Time. (and I know it probably sounds easier than it actually is, and probably wouldn't work. But it's just one of those crazy ideas that would make a lot of people happy).
After 2nd hour or so we could just take a little nap to get us fired up for the day. (I've heard that you only need twenty minutes) And anyone who doesn't want to take a nap or needs to catch up on some homework can use this time as a study hall. [or you could do some devos too :)]

It's just a wild idea i think could keep some people awake in class every once in a while. Which in the long run would help improve grades and test scores. Of course you'd have to separate guys and girls, cuz you don't want any of that happening!...
But I think it would just be nice, and make everyone a little bit happier. :)
