I've read all about this as well, but I've read more on the part that elementary aged children can actually function better in mornings, while high schoolers function better later on. I've always thought school start times were a bit backward in that elemenetary started after the high school. It really should be the other way around. I see the point in starting high school earlier though, because it gets them ready for the real world and having to get up and be somewhere first thing. (well, for most jobs...) But for my daughter, she would function better if she could stay awake long enough to pass her algebra class... haha!
