Spring break is the perfect time to have fun with your friends and family and take a break from school, while students are out having fun and staying up late with friends during this time they are not thinking about how it would affect their school life. On average a sixteen year old should get seven to nine hours of sleep every night. After spring break, students dread coming back to school and having to get back to work. On a school night if you want to get eight hours of sleep you should go to sleep at about ten if you wake up around six. On the first day back from spring break I sat down with Jewell Duncan, a current Searcy High School eleventh grader to talk about her sleep pattern over the break and how she might think it will affect her this week with her school work. She said that “During spring break there were some nights where I went to bed pretty late at about two or three, and slept until about eleven or twelve.” You are probably thinking that this type of schedule could really mess you up having to get up early for school ” yeah it really messed with me last night (Sunday night) I could not go to sleep until about one, because I just was not tired.”  This means that Jewell tried to wake up at six and had only gotten a little over half the sleep she was supposed to. Then on Wednesday I talked to Jewell again about how her sleeping pattern was turning out for the week. “It’s Horton better but not back all the way to normal quite yet.” Some things that you could do to work on your sleeping schedule if it’s still a little off from spring break Is try to go to sleep even if you’re not tired, this might be hard but it could be the best thing for your body. One more thing that could help is if you keep to your school schedule over the weekend, again this might not be fun and might be a little lame but it could really help you.
