Imagine you are trying to convince your district's school board that changing

the high school start time from 7:10 a. m. to 8:30 a. m. would benefit all

students. Which appeal would most likely move this audience to support your

cause?

A. I consulted the records in the office, and they show that 75

percent of the students at our school arrived late to at least one

class in the last semester.

B. It frustrates my parents when I sleep through my alarm and have

to ask them to drive me to school - a situation that would not

occur with the later start time.

C. You probably don't remember how hard it is for young people to

get up early, but I am a teenager, and I'm telling you, it's practically

impossible.

O D. Studies show that teenagers' bodies have a biological drive to stay

awake fairly late at night, so early start times lead to a constantly

overtired student population.
