Late Mondays are more beneficial than "Late" Tuesdays. Having a later start on Mondays is nice because it allows more time to sleep in, it creates a way to ease into the week, and everyone gets out at the same time. Since A period starts at 8:40 and first period starts an 9:30 on Late Mondays, students are greatful because they are granted an hour of extra sleep to allow them to be well- rested. They may ease into the week due to the lack of dreading Mondays as much as they had before. Late start Mondays also gives students a happier outlook on starting the week by knowing they can use Monday to get used to waking up early again. Everyone gets out of school at the same time on Mondays, which makes it easier for parents to be always be certain about dissmissal times. It also is more convenient for parents with multiple children attending SRV to pickup their kids at the same time even if one is taking an A period and one is not. Students and teachers may also make plan events and after school activities without having to consider the two separate dismissal times. Some people may argue that Late Tuesdays were favorable because they allowed students to leave earlier on Tuesdays and get an extra hour to do homework or relax. However, that was only true for about half of SRVHS students, because the half taking an A period had to stay until the regualr time of 3:10. This seemed unfair, because while much of the school was on their way home to enjoy an extra hour of relaxation or time to get things done, many students were obligated to stay in an extra class and do more learning. Also, some may argue that the change of schedule was nice becuase students taking an A period could have it at the end of the day, which would be a pleasant change in the middle of the week. However, this may cause some students to be unfocused due to the change and knowing that other students are already out of school. Overall, late Mondays are more beneficial than late Tuesdays to those attending SRVHS.

Author Introduction
Hi, my name is Daniella Paradiso. I love playing soccer, running, listening to music, being with friends, and writing.
My favorite book is The Secret Life of Bees. My goal for this year is to improve my writingThe Secret Life of B
One quote that I like, was said by Jackie Robinson. Jackie stated, "A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives." This quote has stuck with me because I believe the main importance in someone's life, is to impact others in a positive way.
