Minnesota Sleep Society school start time campaign
Also: Teen Sleep Loss Toolkit · School Start Time Toolkit and Information Center
The Minnesota Sleep Society's School Start Time Committee urges Minnesota districts to start high school no earlier than 8:30 a.m. It publishes a toolkit for school leaders and parents with the evidence, Minnesota teen sleep data, a sample school policy, FAQs, personal stories and handouts for community events, and keeps a list of schools that want to change.

Research notes
Created 2026-10-24 by an AI research pass for #103 (A4); not reviewed by a person. A Start School Later page (search snippet) says the board was asked to take up school start times at its Fall 2015 conference; the toolkit's launch date was not found and pages carry 2017/2020 copyright lines. Page lists districts that changed (Edina 1996 onward) but does not credit the society for them. To verify: start year 2016; the 8:30 a.m. threshold (from the page).
