Welcome to Start School Later Connecticut!


A statewide initiative to ensure healthy school start times

We’re excited to launch our 2026 Healthy Hours initiative to help Connecticut schools adopt and ensure developmentally appropriate school start times! Our goal is to ensure that Connecticut schools start at times that allow students to get the essential sleep they need to be safe, healthy, and successful.

This initiative will include support for individual school districts working to adopt healthy start times as well as statewide efforts to ensure that every student can start school at safe, healthy hours.



Three ways to get involved!
