The article “Later School Start Times Improve Student Health and Performance” comes from the National Sleep Foundation, an organization focused on sleep research and education. The author is a researcher who has published work on adolescent sleep.
The article cites a 2022 study of 9,000 students in five states and links to data from the CDC and the American Academy of Pediatrics. However, the study was correlational, not experimental, so it cannot prove cause and effect.
Overall, I have moderately high confidence in the information, but I would check independent studies before fully accepting the claim.
