One of the best ways students can prepare for success this school year is to commit to getting the healthy sleep they need to learn, function and grow. Yet, more than half of parents (57%) with school-age children say that they have a child or teen who does not get enough sleep on school nights, according to a July 2020 survey conducted by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (AASM)*. To highlight the importance of healthy sleep for students, the AASM is holding the first-ever Student Sleep Health Week (SSHW), slated for Sept. 14-20, 2020.
