Did you know…the 2018-19 youth survey showed only 26.3% of students surveyed reported getting the needed 8+ hours of sleep. According to an article by Stanford Medicine studies show adolescents do better with mood and fatigue levels if parents set the bedtime.  Here is the full article  https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2015/10/among-teens-sleep-deprivation-an-epidemic.html
