Teens Who Sleep Less More Likely to Lead Risky Lives

I agree that sleep is important. My daughter has averaged four hours of sleep for the past three nights. However, this was not due to tv watching or web surfing. She gets an immense amount of homework from school every day. The school is well aware of the situation, which is typical for kids at her high school, but they also want to keep their high ranking (they were in your list of best high schools for math and science). I'm very concerned about our kids health during the crucial years of high school.
