Health Office: Sleep is an important part of our daily routine. In the United States as many as 85% of teenagers are not getting the recommended 8.5 hours of sleep each night (National Sleep Foundation, 2019). Sleep helps to fuel your brain and your body. Teens need more sleep because their bodies and minds are growing quickly. To be at your best, you need between 8 and 10 hours of sleep every day. Lack of sleep causes drowsiness, lack of concentration, difficulty controlling your mood, and an increased risk of accidents such as drowsy driving accidents. Lack of sleep affects how you perform on tests, on the field, at home with family members, and at school with friends. Creating good sleep habits are important for more information look up SLEEP HYGIENE. SO, to be your best self this year, work on getting more sleep each night!
