Context of Deprive

Teenagers are some of the most sleep deprived people in the U.S. On average, teens do not get enough sleep, and more important, they do not get enough quality sleep, researchers say.

In addition to technology, one fairly indisputable factor contributes to this collective sleepiness: school start times.
