text: School can be a stressful enviroment for students, much like work is for an adult. Returning home to relax, after completing homework, is a positive way to recharge mental batteries before the next day. Studies show that stress has a large impact on student behavior. Having to stay at school an extra hour and a half can really start to take affect on student performance. One of my favorite parts of the day is being able to breath in the calming air of home or just having my muscles release their tension after all the tests at school. Students already suffer through seven tense hours in the school building a day, why make them stay there any longer?
